Josh is talking with Daniel about this face to face. I'll ping Josh or Daniel about summarizing back to the ticket. I think the answer to this question is yes. > May require Windows clients to regenerate certs Correct. > We should warn users about breaking change Absolutely, with the consideration this won't be a breaking change for all users. ---------------------------------------- Bug #12864: Windows domain fact should use primary dns suffix first https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/12864#change-63149 Author: Josh Cooper Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assignee: Jeff Weiss Category: windows Target version: 2.0.0 Keywords: windows Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/facter/pull/193 Affected Facter version: Currently, the domain fact on Windows looks for the domain of the first network adapter for which IPEnabled is true. But Windows also has a concept of a primary/global dns suffix. If the primary DNS suffix is set, but none of the connection-specific domains are set, then facter will report an empty domain (which also affects the fqdn). According to <http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc959322.aspx> <pre> By default, the primary DNS suffix of a computer that is running Windows 2000 is set to the DNS name of the Active Directory domain to which the computer is joined. </pre> Facter should use the primary DNS suffix as the domain, if it is defined. Otherwise, fall back to what it does now. The value of the primary DNS suffix is stored in <pre>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\Domain</pre> There may also be a WMI way to retrieve this. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
