I get these on a regular basis. I would like to resolve them, but ...
How can the local system run without a DNS server? Mine seems to be
doing OK?

Dynamic registration or deregistration of one or more DNS records

This help says

Explanation
The DNS server could not dynamically delete the DNS records.

User Action
To initiate dynamic deletion on the DNS server, do the following:

Run DCDiag.exe.
This program is located on your Windows Server 2003 CD in the
Support\Tools folder.
Fix any problems identified by DCDiag.exe.
At the command prompt on the DC, type
nltest.exe /dsregdns
The Nttest.exe program is available on the Microsoft Windows Server
2000 Resource Kit CD.

However, the issue of dynamic deletion of of DNS records would seem to
be different than the configuration of a DNS server for the local
system.

Everything passes when I run DCDiag except:

Thanks, but I think I meet all the steps...

1. If this the only DNS in the LAN, make sure the DNS point to itself
instead of ISP DNS.

The internal address is used in the DNS server (192...) only and the
forward zone points to itself.

2 If there are two DNS servers in the LAN, make sure they point to
each other as primary and themselves as secondary.

Only 1 DNS server in the LAN.

3. If your machine is pointing to the ISP DNS, you may want to stop to
register with the DNS. To do that, open the DNS tab of the advanced
TCP/IP properties of the connection and uncheck Register this
connection’s address in DNS.

Always.

4. Running NETDIAG /fix may fix the issue.

The only copy I could find is for windows 2000 only.

5. Make sure the DHCP Client be running in the problem computer.

DHCP Client not needed since the system has a static internal ip
address.

Any other advice?

DNS test . . . . . . . . . . . . . : Failed
[WARNING] The DNS entries for this DC are not registered correctly
on DNS server 'external name server'. Please wait for 30 minutes for

OK, can you please point me somewhere that will help with that?

I have a server on a LAN with internal ip address (DNS server & DC).
It is connected to the internet via a router.

The network connection tcp/ip properties point to the external name
server and are set to not register.

Where am I missing out in the DNS server for not pointing to its self?
My zone records are at the bottom of this message.

Thanks.

Thank you, Doug for the input. That is correct. The DHCP client service is required for registration of DNS A record for computers with statically assigned IP addresses.

Quoted form http://www.chicagotech.net/Troubleshooting/dhcpclient1.htm

Analysis: The DHCP client service is required for registration of DNS A record for computers with DHCP and statically assigned IP addresses. For that reason, the DHCP Client service is set to start automatically by default in Windows OS. The DHCP Client Service is also responsible for registering Dynamic DNS (DDNS) names in Windows 2000.

Note: If a DNS server with static IP is not running the DHCP Client, the server may receive Event ID 5782 with "No DNS servers configured for local system" error.

Fix any problems identified by DCDiag.exe.
At the command prompt on the DC, type

The Nttest.exe program is available on the Microsoft Windows Server

However, the issue of dynamic deletion of of DNS records would seem to
be different than the configuration of a DNS server for the local

Everything passes when I run DCDiag except:

Check that the IP address is registered correctly with the DNS server.

Everything seems to work OK except for the event log warnings.

Any ideas?

I will go back and work on item 1 some more. Should have double
checked, the DHCP client is running -- need more sleep <grin>.

The last time I tried to configure I could not get DNS resolution to
work for the local machine. I will try again.

Thanks.

OK, can you please point me somewhere that will help with that?

I have a server on a LAN with internal ip address (DNS server & DC).
It is connected to the internet via a router.

The network connection tcp/ip properties point to the external name
server and are set to not register.

Where am I missing out in the DNS server for not pointing to its self?

1. If this the only DNS in the LAN, make sure the DNS point to itself

The internal address is used in the DNS server (192...) only and the

2 If there are two DNS servers in the LAN, make sure they point to
each other as primary and themselves as secondary.

Only 1 DNS server in the LAN.

3. If your machine is pointing to the ISP DNS, you may want to stop to
register with the DNS. To do that, open the DNS tab of the advanced
TCP/IP properties of the connection and uncheck Register this
connection's address in DNS.

Always.

4. Running NETDIAG /fix may fix the issue.

The only copy I could find is for windows 2000 only.

5. Make sure the DHCP Client be running in the problem computer.

DHCP Client not needed since the system has a static internal ip

Any other advice?

Thank you, Doug for the input. That is correct. The DHCP client service is required for registration of DNS A record for computers with statically assigned IP addresses.

Quoted form http://www.chicagotech.net/Troubleshooting/dhcpclient1.htm

Analysis: The DHCP client service is required for registration of DNS A record for computers with DHCP and statically assigned IP addresses. For that reason, the DHCP Client service is set to start automatically by default in Windows OS. The DHCP Client Service is also responsible for registering Dynamic DNS (DDNS) names in Windows 2000.

Note: If a DNS server with static IP is not running the DHCP Client, the server may receive Event ID 5782 with "No DNS servers configured for local system" error.

Just as a follow up. I had to do step 1. Then I needed to enable
dynamic updates (secure) for the zones. Finally, I used dcdiag,
netdiag, and nltest to get things hooked together and restarted
netlogin to force the update. Things appear to be pretty clean now.

Thanks for pointing me in the correct direction.
