This is something I'm doing in a test environment using Virtual PC.
Two Servers, both 2003
Server1 domain1.com
Server2 sub.domain1.com
I'm troubleshooting replication problems.
If I look in this folder in DNS Forward Lookup Zones/Domain_Name/_msdcs/dc/_sites/Default-First-Site-Name/_tcp Forward Lookup Zones/Domain_Name/_msdcs/dc/_tcp _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.Domain_Name there is a SRV record for that server under _ldap and _kerberos
If I look in the same location in DNS on Server2, the SRV record is also for Server1. Is that correct or should there be SRV records for Server2 there?
TIA

Not if they are in different domains.
If you are having replication issues, can you post the eventID errors in the Event logs as well as an unedited ipconfig /all of the parent domain DC and the child domain DC please?This will help us get a better understanding of how the infrastructure is configured and provide specific help.

Hello JohnB, from a command prompt on each dc do the following:
netdiag /fix ipconfig /registerdns

Thanks Paul, but I moved on, I just recreated the VM's, and started from scratch. I need the practice any way :-)
But thanks for the tip, I'll keep in mind.

John,
Does that mean the problems are gone?
Some suggestions, based on the ipconfig /all you provided:
1. Change the 127.0.0.1 to the actual IP of the DNS server IP address. 2. If both DC/DNS servers are on the same subnet/site, set the partner as the first address, the second as itself, otherwise in different subnets/sites, itself as first, one of the others as the second entry. 3. Create a reverse zone for your subnet. Allow updates. 4. If you are disabling NetBIOS, make it consistent on all DCs. Your original ipconfig showed it was disabled on only one. 5. Keep in mind replication scope of an AD integrated zone properties. You'll want them consistent. If you set it to All DNS server in the domain (middle button) on one of the DCs, and to all DNS servers in the Forest (top button), this can cause a major problem and would be a cause of the problems you were seeing. There are quite a few steps that need to be taken to clean it up, if that were the case. Also, if you delete a zone on one of the DCs, it will delete them on ALL DCs, unless of course the replication scopes are skewed.
I hope that helps.
Ace
