Hi,

I have a slight problem with getting my DNS server(2003 AD integrated) to
accept dynamic updates.

All clients, XP/2000 Pro are set to Register this connection's address in
DNS on there dns settings.

The DNS server is set to allow secure and non secure updates, but they just
don't register.

In the end I created a new DHCP (2003) to do the job for me, but was just
wondering if anyone else had a similar problem.

Any help appreciated.

don't register.

One of four things:

1) Clients are not authenticated
(usually due to DNS problems)

2) Clients don't know their own name
(so cannot register it properly/find the zone)

3) Clients are using he wrong DNS server set
(or a mixture of internal AND wrong external DNS)

4) DNS isn't really set to allow dynamic updates

DNS for AD
1) Dynamic for the zone supporting AD
2) All internal DNS clients NIC\IP properties must specify SOLELY
that internal, dynamic DNS server (set.)
3) DCs and even DNS servers are DNS clients too -- see #2

Restart NetLogon on any DC if you change any of the above that
affects a DC and/or use:

nltest /dsregdns /server:DC-ServerNameGoesHere

Ensure that DNS zones/domains are fully replicated to all DNS
servers for that (internal) zone/domain.

Also useful may be running DCDiag on each DC, sending the
output to a text file, and searching for FAIL, ERROR, WARN.

Single Lable domain zone names are a problem Google:
[ "SINGLE LABEL" domain names DNS 2000 | 2003 microsoft: ]
