Hi Thommes, Automatic site coverage takes care that Neighbor-DCs are registering
themselves into sites where no DC is. If there is a DC the DCs won’t
reregister themselves for that site. You can clean up the records manually, or
recommended, by enabling aging and scavenging. Since you appearently moved DCs from site 1 to site 2, they are
still registered for site 1 and they are registering themselves correctly for
site 2. The site 1 entries will only disappear if they are deleted manually or
by the scavenging process. If site 1 has no DCs registered to it other DCs will
still take care of that site, since every site is supposed to have DCs. That’s
what the automatic site coverage process takes care of. There are good documents on this in the TechCenter, look at these: http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=%22automatic+site+coverage%22+%2Bsite%3Amicrosoft.com&FORM=QBRE Gruesse - Sincerely, Ulf B. Simon-Weidner MVP-Book

Michael M. 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----- 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 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,
