We configured a Windows 2003 server as a member of the NT4 domain. We configured the server as a DNS server for the domain. We then upgraded the PDC to Windows 2003 and pointed it to the DNS server for DNS. It completed the upgrade and registered all the AD zones in DNS except the ForestDnsZone and the DomainD... 4 07.06.2007 18:10:32 DNS Replication I have a test environment setup that is on a seperate subnet than our production environment.

Zone contains a CNAME record that points to another domain. Secondary will not load the zone. Remove the CNAME record from the primary. R&R secondary zone record and the zone transfer is successful.

We have 2 DNS servers for our domain. Both are forwarding the unresolved requests to our internet gateway server.

In this case, adding the account to the DNS Admins group doesn't apply. This is a Windows 2000 Server.

So if the primary goes down, it seems that the secondary is somewhat useless. Do you see any downsides to having n... 5 03.06.2007 15:49:55 Move hosting to external site - DNS resolution not working Hi Everyone, We have decided to move our web hosting to a provider (vs. doing it internally). 1) Everything is working fine outside our trusted network. 2) I changed the www entry for the domain to a (A) record pointing to the IP provided by the ISP. 3) When I ping from out trusted network www.[domainname].com it responds fine and to the correct IP address. 4) When I try to go to th... 3 02.06.2007 18:50:01 domain and subdomain on different servers Hi, I host many websites on Windows 2003 server.
