Title: RE: [ActiveDir] DCs generating SRV records for 2 sites!?

Hi Neil/Jorge,      The child domain DCs are generating SRV records (as seen in their local netlogon.dns and netlogon.dnb files)  for both their original site (to which they have subsequently moved back into) and the other site that they were temporarily moved to.   While I could manually remove the incorrect DNS records on my DNS server, I will just assume the child DCs will just repopulate them.  Right?  Thanks for any input!   Mike Thommes   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 03, 2006 8:29 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DCs generating SRV records for 2 sites!?   Excuse me butting in mid thread, but if a DC was moved from site A to B, then SRV records will exist for that DC in both sites, within DNS, until old SRV records are removed thru scavenging.   Why not simply remove the 'incorrect' SRV records by hand, since scavenging may take a number of days to remove the old records.   hth, neil   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Almeida Pinto, Jorge de Sent: 03 January 2006 14:17 To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DCs generating SRV records for 2 sites!? what do you mean with "The *wrong* SRV records are being produced on the child domain DCs"?   questions about this...   * On ALL child domain DCs? * Do you mean "the SRV RRs are in registered wrong in DNS, but the DCs itself register the correct records" or do you mean "the SRV RRs are in registered wrong in DNS, AND the DCs register incorrect SRV RRs" Can you explain more and provide more details?   Jorge   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] on behalf of Thommes, Michael M.

Hi joe,    I don't see where scavenging has anything to do with it.  The *wrong* SRV records are being produced on the child domain DCs.  What I see on my AD-integrated DNS server is just a reflection of what those DCs register. -mike -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of joe Sent: Monday, January 02, 2006 8:01 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DCs generating SRV records for 2 sites!? Sounds like you don't have scavenging enabled. Also I have seen interesting DNS deployments where a backup is made of the zones on a regular basis and the whole zone is reloaded from the backups every x hours. I won't argue for or against that type of system, only acknowledge that I have seen it in the wild... -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Thommes, Michael M.

We have a couple of child domain controllers that were moved from their respective site into the main site using the AD Site and Services mmc. The subnet definition was NOT changed accordingly.  This was to try to solve an Exchange problem (had no effect).  The DCs were moved back to their own original site a couple of days later.  Now I see that these DCs are advertising SRV records for both sites!  We've tried deleting (renaming really) the netlogon.dns and netlogon.dnb files so that they could be generated automatically upon reboot.  The bogus site SRV records still show up!  Any thoughts on how we can get this back straight?  Thanks much for any thoughts.
