Bonjour Frederic, The NETLOGON process on each DC republishes the DNS records periodically. You have to set a reg entry on the DC to modify the priority. Set the LdapSrvPriority reg value in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters on the DC to the priority value you want.
FWIW, I wrote an article for Windows & .NET magazine about controlling SRV rec publication that should be out in the April edition. It discusses this and the other twenty or so reg settings you can fiddle with to control the way clients locate DCs. -gil Gil Kirkpatrick CTO, NetPro Author of "Active Directory Programming" from MacMillan -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, February 14, 2003 6:46 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] DNS Records Bonjour, My AD Domain is managed with 6 domain controllers. For design reasons, I have some sites without DCs attached. When users in these sites are logging on, they are attached to one of the DCs. I would like to attach them, in priority, to one specific DC. So I modified the DNS record and I put a higher priority to it. It worked a time, but recently, all the DNS records were modified and the default priority were restored. It would like to fix the priority for a long time. How can I do that ?
