What I want to accomplish is each DNS server querying directly to the Internet and not forwarding to my server first.
How would I delegate a zone to the Child? -----Original Message----- From: Linton Smith (WBTQ) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 04, 2002 12:17 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DNS in a domain tree model. In your particular case, I would: - on the root domain DNS, delegate CHILD to the CHILD DNS server. - on the CHILD DNS server, set it to forward to the root domain DNS server. - ensure that all root domain controllers use DNS servers authoritative for the root domain only. - ensure that all CHILD domain controllers use DNS servers authoritative for the CHILD domain only. That should do it. Linton -----Original Message----- From: Salandra, Justin A.

What is the best way to configure DNS in a domain tree model? If I have a parent domain running AD Integrated DNS and I go to DC Promo a child domain to make it a new child domain of an existing tree, the DNS must reference the Parent DNS so that DC Promo can find the forest root. After the DC Promo is done, even though the new domain controller in the child domain is a DNS Server with itself listed as an alternate, it did not have a DNS zone created, because AD Integrated do not replicate over domain boundaries. Therefore how do I make it so that DNS works correctly and the local administrators can update DNS via DHCP or manually and have those changes also in the root. I have a test environment called TESTLAB.LOCAL My child domain is called CHILD.TESTLAB.LOCAL My DNS in the root has a zone for TESTLAB.LOCAL After I ran DC Promo I had another folder in TESTLAB.LOCAL called CHILD What did I do wrong?
