In this scenario, Iâd recommend Primary to another and secondary to self.

Subject: [ActiveDir] DNS should point to...?
Hi â
I have just been brought into a situation where a client has several poorly
connected (VPN and slow connections to the Internet) sites in a single W2k
domain. Each site has a single DC that runs AD-integrated DNS. Previously,
most of the DCs had tombstoned. Microsoft walked the in-house guy through
demoting and re-promoting everything.
The question is this: where should each DCâs DNS point? I have always
thought they should point to themselves and only themselves. The DNS server
forwards to the Internet (as everything is poorly connected). The in-house
tech said Microsoft told him to point each DCâs primary DNS to the
FSMO-role holder and then to itself as secondary.
Any thoughts?
