*Looks* like one of the hosts on the network is trying to use this server to register for the t. domain. You may want to look into which of the hosts would be doing that.
'- DNS server(s) primary for the records to be registered is not running' would be applicable.

I have 2 Server 2003 DC's, one is a GC and PDC emulator and the other has DNS and Exchange 2003. The server running DNS is showing Event 5781 Netlogon Warnings under the System Event Log. The warning is: ======================================================= "Event Type: Warning Event Source: NETLOGON Event Category: None Event ID: 5781 Date: 4/6/2005 Time: 5:58:32 AM User: N/A Computer: NJMAIL1 Description: Dynamic registration or deletion of one or more DNS records associated with DNS domain 't.' failed. These records are used by other computers to locate this server as a domain controller (if the specified domain is an Active Directory domain) or as an LDAP server (if the specified domain is an application partition). Possible causes of failure include: - TCP/IP properties of the network connections of this computer contain wrong IP address(es) of the preferred and alternate DNS servers - Specified preferred and alternate DNS servers are not running - DNS server(s) primary for the records to be registered is not running - Preferred or alternate DNS servers are configured with wrong root hints - Parent DNS zone contains incorrect delegation to the child zone authoritative for the DNS records that failed registration USER ACTION Fix possible misconfiguration(s) specified above and initiate registration or deletion of the DNS records by running 'nltest.exe /dsregdns' from the command prompt or by restarting Net Logon service.
