I had the very same problem. It was affecting my scripts because I wasn't connecting to the machines I thought I was.
* You need to enable DNS scavenging. Don't set anything below 48 hours. * If you are using DHCP, add your DHCP servers to the DnsUpdateProxy group. -Todd -----Original Message----- From: Oluwaseyi Owoeye [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, February 17, 2003 05:32 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] DNS Inconsistency Hi Guys, I am having a major problem in my organization over here. I have set up active directory for about 800 users and about 500 workstations. But for some reasons or the other my DNS seems to be misbehaving. When I ping a host I get a reply from a particular IP address, but when I do a ping -a of the same IP address I get an entirely different host. For some reason or the other the record I have in my forward lookup zones and my reverse lookup zones are not synchronized. Is there any way I can resolve this inconsistency because it gets worse and worse everyday. Is there any tool I can use to correct this.
