Typically you fix this on your network, not in DNS, by setting the DNS search suffix via DHCP, so that when a user enters http://portal/ they actually resolve http://portal.yourdomain.com/.

Hello,

Wondering, how to create custom internal URL's such as http://portal/ -> https://some-very-long-host01.my.long.domain.com

or, ideally:

http://portal/ -> https://some-very-long-host01.my.long.domain.com/some-excessively-long-url.html

using FreeIPA for internal network resources?  I have a CNAME I created.  It helps a bit but not fully since the CNAME remains in the URL of the servers and this results in warning about security etc.  I effectively just need a redirect alongside the short URL.

Looking to see if I can get the equivalent of a customized tiny url effect where I can pick a few short names to use for the internal network resources I want folks to have an easy access too.  Examples of a few short names that could be handy on internal networks:

http://portal/
http://docs/
http://howto/
http://food/
http://vacation/

etc

Not having much luck tweaking my searches online to get what I'm looking for w/ FreeIPA.  :(
