RE: [ActiveDir] Windows 2003 DC issue

Title: Message

The only change in 2003 re SRV publication that I can recall is that the default update interval is 15 minutes in W2K3 vs. 60 minutes in W2K.

 

Some questions:

 

Is it the same BIND server that worked with W2K?

Did you check the BIND logs?

And if there was nothing there, did you run NETMON or some other network trace program?

Subject: [ActiveDir] Windows 2003 DC issue

We started playing with 2003 in our test environment. We came across a problem with how dynamic updates are done on 2003. Dynamic updates are done on a Sun Bind server. For some reason, the SRV records would not update on the Bind server. However, we can do dynamic update on 2000 DC to the Bind DNS. I'm just wondering if there is something new in 2003 with regards to how SRV records are created? Or maybe I'm just missing something completely. Any ideas would be appreciated. We ended up using 2003 DNS for the DC's. That worked, but isn't a representation of how production will be.
