Deadlock situation with DNS Error 'hostname must be unique'

[bigretromike]

For domain in Sentora I added:
MX
HOSTNAME: @
TARGET: zeus.domain.com

SPF
HOSTNAME: zeus
TARGER: v=spf1 a ~all

The error output is:
zone domain.com/IN: domain.com/MX 'zeus.domain.com' has no address records (A or AAAA) zone domain.com/IN: 'zeus.domain.com' found SPF/SPF record but no SPF/TXT record found, add matching type TXT record zone domain.com/IN: loaded serial 2015022528 OK

Then adding TXT:
HOSTNAME: zeus
TAGERT: IP_of_zeus

Im getting:
ERROR DNS NOT SAVED
Hostnames must be unique.

Same thing when adding A record for zeus

I had to bypass checking via adding those by hand to database, which make them work, but still this is a bug that will prevent people to do this the safe way (via gui that validate data)

Note that the bug report here: #49 has been resolved by checking if DNS records exist of the same type and name - which is actually fine - it's called round robin DNS.

Again I suggest we could simply remove the same-name same-domain DNS check - it's never valid to block DNS records with the same name and same domain, regardless of whether they are the same type.

I will look into this. I will run tests with Sentora v2.
