RE: [ActiveDir] LDAPS SRV Records?
On the DNS server option, a couple of interesting things when I relooked at the API (on a lunch break this time Deji ;oP ) It doesn't let you specify the server to make the change on, only the server to send the FAZ (Find Auth Zone) request. I would have to play with that to see how that might cause an issue. Also Microsoft did something they don't normally do and they changed the da** format of the parameter between 2K/K3/XP and Vista/Longhorn. So I would have to add additional code to determine OS version. RE: the forreal. Well yes, someone could delete all records, but not with a single command from DNSSRVRec without specifying each SRV record individually. You can't do a zone *.*. Again, it doesn't look anything up, it simply sends the command you send so if you want all _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.dom.com you can send that in a clear and bang they are gone, but you just asked for that to happen so I expect you would be disappointed if they didn't go away. Not sure why you would say /clear _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.dom.com unless that is what you intended. Am I missing something here? On the config file, that is exactly how nsupdate works now. It doesn't have the defaults that you mention in the 'also', but you can write to a file exactly what you want done for records and it does it. I am definitely working through my head possible variations that would be cool/fun to have for it though. I was pinged offline from a list member about the possibility of doing other types of records, not just SRV records. Can anyone see that being valuable to them and could you explain why? I am waiting for the response from that list member as well. The intent wasn't reallyto write a DNS management tool but I guess if nothing else is really fitting the bill, maybe its needed?

(something like ldifde.exe). I could create a config file in which I could list down all the operations/records I want to manage. of course, this can be scripted and given to DNSSrvRec as command line options, but putting all together in a file where each operation is separated on single line, would give nice readability. (something like LDF file)Also, like adfind.exe if we can define some defaults for port,weight and ttl etc. in config file which are used for same RUN of the command.Currently what I am doing is, preparing a excel sheet containing all the sites in my forest and manually defining the priority order in which clients in each site will get authenticated by DCs (like first same site DCs, then nearest site DCs, basically making sure clients never have to look for generic SRV records). Afterwards based on this sheet, I will prepare a list of SRV records to create/delete on each DNS server and push those SRV records to respective servers.--Kamlesh On 1/16/06, joe [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Kamlesh, you can get the initial version at http://www.joeware.net/win/free/tools/DNSSrvRec.htm.I posted it to the site last night and announced on my blog, there are over 50 downloadsalready which surprises me a bit.

I was ripping CDs to MP3's (4100 songs ripped now for my Creative Zen Sleek), watching Modern Marvels (history channel), looking through newsgroup issues, and working on the code for this. ;o) I really should have been working on something else I have been working on for a while that I originally thought of back in about 2000 that I finally started doing something aboutbut this looked like a good one nighter to get out of the way. No real committment to get it done, sense of accomplishment afterward, makes people happy. :o) joe From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Grillenmeier, GuidoSent: Sunday, January 15, 2006 6:04 AMTo: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.orgSubject: RE: [ActiveDir] LDAPS SRV Records? nice job joe!

DnsModifyRecordsInSet and DnsReplaceRecordSet API calls. These are out of dnsapi.dll.

RE: [ActiveDir] LDAPS SRV Records?
I looked in the DLL the first time I responded which is why I mentioned DNSAPI.DLL. When I worked on the code last night I had all the info I needed, just had to wrap the calls and format the data properly. The fact that it would be easy and was for some old friends is why I worked on it. It really didn't take any serious thought from that point, just execution. Even you, possibly, could have done it, I imagine, if your pets didn't spike your drinks to assure a peaceful sleep. :) joe -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, January 15, 2006 6:54 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] LDAPS SRV Records?

I think the functions are exposed in WinAPI and/or DNSAPI - I am NOT a programmer :) There are very likely where you'd start: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dns/dns/dns_ srv_data.asp http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dns/dns/dns_ record.asp Because of the role DHCP client plays in dynamic DNS registration, I am thinking that DHCPCSVC.DLL may be in play as well.

Jorge, I think he is looking to write his own wrapper. So, he is looking for the bits where the functions are exposed.
