Cannot disable WINS-R on DNS reverse zones |
|
|
Hi
I'm having problems disabling WINS-R on some reverse zones on a Windows
Server 2003 server. The zones are Active Directory integrated and is
configured to allow secure dynamic update. Scavenging is also configured,
the zones are configured to replicate to all domain controllers in domain,
it's multiple domain controllers in different AD sites.
I disable WINS-R for the zone, I see it disappears from the zone data, then
suddenly after like 30 seconds its right back and enabled again. Anyone seen
this before?
If I don't find an explanation, I'll probably change the zone to a
non-integrated zone, wait for it to be removed from all domain controllers,
and then make it Active Directory integrated again.
Thanks!

You can do that if you like, but my first question is are you talking about
the WINS-R record in the zone or are you talking about if you go into the
Reverse zone properties, you are saying you can't disable (uncheck) WINS-R?

I'm able to uncheck the option for WINS-R on the reverse sone, and I see
that the record for WINS-R in the zone data is removed after doing this.
However, after 30-60 seconds, the record is back and the option for WINS-R
is enabled again. I guess it could be a replication issue, but I have never
seen this before.

Is the zone AD Integrated? Replication is probably putting it back.
Any errors in the Event viewer on any of your DCs?

Yes, in my first post I wrote that the zones are AD-integrated and that
there are multiple domain controllers in different AD sites. No replication
errors visible in the Directory Service log, no errors visible in the DNS
log. Also all other records are replicated without any problems.
I have fixed the problem now. I had to select (property for zone - WINS-R)
"Do not replicate this record", then select Apply, then deselect "Use WINS-R
lookup". Previously I just deselected "Use WINS-R lookup" since the record
was replicated, but for some reason (maybe a bug who knows) this did not
work for more than 30 seconds...
Thanks anyway.

I apologize for not re-reading the posts in the thread, which I usually do.
Since AD is 2003, replication between DCs in a Site happens within 15
seconds, which esplains what you are seeing within 30 seconds. The "Do not
replicate this record" checkbox is to insure you do replicate the WINS
setting to all DC/DNS servers in the replication scope. Glad you were able
to figure it out.

No problem, I'm just happy someone took the time to answer my post.
However, your statement regarding the "Do not replicate this record" option
is somewhat incorrect. This option is not to "insure you do replicate the
WINS setting to all DC/DNS servers in the replication scope". This option is
to give you the flexibility to choose whether or not the WINS-R lookup
record should be replicated with the zone data or not. It is to prevent
replication of WINS-R record to DNS secondary servers that may not support
this record or function, and it also makes it possible to configure the
different DNS servers with different WINS-R behavior.
Thanks.
