Re: DNS Error 6702 |

In news:uoez5EF5FHA.156@TK2MSFTNGP15.phx.gbl,
Terry <it@REMOVETHISfloydautomatic.co.uk> made this post, which I then
commented about below:
| Quote: | I have a Win2K3 server with some DNS issues, checking the DNS log I
find it full of 6702's! DNS of course is stopped.
There are various issues with regards to the Win2K machines not
authenticating on user logon, not finding printer shares etc.
What would I need to do to fix up the DNS config on this server
please?
regards
Terry
The network topolgy is:
Zyxel Router at 192.168.1.1 acting as DHCP server
Server at 192.168.1.33 as the only PDC
XPpro client at 192.168.1.235
Two Win2K at 192.168.1.34 & .35
IP Config gives:
Host name ....floyd_svr
Primary DNS suffix...floydmatcham
Node type.... unknown
IP Routing enabled....No
WINS Proxy enabled....No
DNS Suffix search list.... floydmatcham
DHCP enabled.....No
IP address....192.168.1.33
Subnet mask.....255.255.255.0
Default gateway.....192.168.1.1
DNS Servers.....127.0.0.1
195.8.0.33
195.80.0.226

Yourmain issue is your AD DNS domain name (FQDN) is a single label name. Not
good at all. Why did this occur? Possibly not realizing the way names should
be created prior to implementing the domain, especially during the design
phase. Numerous issues can and will occur due to single label AD DNS domain
names.

Another issue is you are using your ISP's DNS for you client machines and
not YOUR internal DNS server.
Also, one more factor is the router is the DHCP server. That guy doesn't
work with DNS Dynamic Updates. Use Windows DHCP.
Recommendations to clean up some of the errors:
1. Remove the 127.0.0.1, 195.8.0.33 and 195.80.0.226 addresses from all the
machines and only use 192.168.1.33 on all machines.
2. In DNS configure a forwarder to go to 195.8.0.33 and 195.80.0.226 .
3. Read this about single lable names:
