> Using the DNS Management Console, bring up the properties sheet of the DNS
> server, on the Interfaces tab, make sure the server is listening on the IP
> address of the server. While in the console, check that you have a reverse
> lookup zone for your subnet. Depending on your IP addresses and subnet mask
> and whether the console is in Normal or Advanced View, you should see a
> reverse lookup zone like "192.168.1.x" (Normal view, with
> 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 Subnet/Mask) or "1.168.192.in-addr.arpa" (Advanced
> View with the same subnet ID)
>
> Make sure your forward lookup zone is in place, named correctly, allows only
> secure updates and has been populated by the DCs' records. If you let
> DCPromo set up DNS for you and this is Win2k3, you should have two zones,
> one for "DNSDomainName" and one for "_msdcs.DNSDomainName"
