You cannot (easily or reliably) do this for INTERNAL DNS with an AD domain since all of the DCs also register the "base name" of the domain -- this should NOT be an issue for "external" DNS which you state is your issue here. -- Herb Martin, MCSE, MVP http://www.LearnQuick.Com (phone on web site)

Its need to be done, then try it u can resolve it within 2 to 3 days. Resolving a name like mycompany.com to an IP address has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with a reverse zone, not at the ISP nor anywhere else. Resolving a bare name requires an A or CNAME record in the forward zone for that name. -- Herb Martin, MCSE, MVP http://www.LearnQuick.Com (phone on web site)
