Re: [ActiveDir] AD DNS in Windows delegation to Novell DNS
You'll be happy to hear you wouldn't recognize it as your father's Novell, so to speak. It's a linux/novell hybrid now supposedly including 6.5 kernel and linux pieces blended together in a magical way that makes it better, shinier, faster etc. Groupwise is a nice front end to sendmail last I checked, although that should have changed with the acquisition of SuSE. Or were they acquired by SuSE? Anyway, I think he answered his own question later and asked the question of how to delegate the zone but still use a different primary name res server. Weird, but that's the question as I understand it.

RE: [ActiveDir] AD DNS in Windows delegation to Novell DNS
I'm not familiar with Novell's DNS implementation... I assume it is based on BIND?

Unless Novell's changed what flavor of DNS/feature set they have since NetWare 5.1 (last time I ever saw Novell) it did not support dynamic updates. More specifically, it supported "dynamic updates" but only via a NetWare DHCP server. Also, at the time, the GUI for managing records didn't support the creation of SRV records in the way AD requires. The dialog box's fields were weird.
