Is it 2003, if so, ensure you restore only the relevant NC(s). In addition, regardless of the NC, auth. stamp only the relevant sub-containers of the MicrosoftDNS container since (and I assume you'll know whether there are) there may be additional zones within it that you do not wish to touch.
For example, if the forest/domain were named corp.msetechnology.com and its zone were maintained as "replicate to all DNS servers in the forest" you would need to auth. stamp - dc=corp.msetechnology.com,cn=MicrosoftDNS,dc=ForestDNSzones,dc=corp,dc=msete chnology,dc=com Note that the first label (element) within the above DN _is_ formulated correctly and somewhat goes against the grain of a typical AD DN. -- Dean Wells MSEtechnology * Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://msetechnology.com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Carerros, Charles Sent: Thursday, June 30, 2005 11:26 AM To: '[email protected]' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DNS problem - Urgent Nope. Boy, I foresee some major changes coming about after this issue is resolved. He has decided to try and rebuild the zone using the netdiag command, I believe. If that doesn't work then we are going to have to do a non-authoritative restore and make the "cn=MicrosotDNS,cn=System,dc=domain,dc=com" tree authoritative.

You could export the zone and reload it as a primary, then convert it to an AD integrated zone, and it will replicate.

We are testing that command now in our test lab, but our primary root AD admin isn't to confident that this will work. Thanks for the suggestion though and if this is our only option, then it is what we will do.
