I am running Max OS X Server and can't set up Open Directory. I get an error saying that "This computer's host name is invalid. The host name does not resolve to any configured address of this computer. Please ensure the host name is correct."
I ran changeip -checkhostname
and get (x's inserted to anonymize):
Primary address = 192.168.xx.xx
Current HostName = xx.xxxxx.com
The DNS hostname is not available, please repair DNS and re-run this tool.
dirserv:success = "success"
This is a similar question to Repair DNS Hostname mac server but in this case, our DNS entry for our host name resolves to a real, reachable IP address and we have a firewall that forwards requests to our internal, 192.168.xx.xx IP.
How do I get around this issue?
