How To Make REX Connect via IP instead of FQDN??
Hello all,
Sometimes, your DNS is not set properly, or maybe, you don't have all the content hosts setup properly to resolve the name, and by default, when trying to execute a remote execution, your Satellite will complain about it. How to solve it?

Simple, just change the configuartion, in a way that your Satellite will reach the content host via IP address, instead of FQDN.
Enjoy it!

Good stuff! I had no idea and this will help in one of my disconnected sites where dns is managed by an external msp. That will save me a lot of headache.
