The DC in the child domain needs to update the dns zone that represents it's
domain. It also needs to update the _msdcs.<root domain> zone. The
_msdcs.<root domain> zone contains records for the GC's and the CNAME
records that are used for replication.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for the replies - I think I have to revise my question.
Upon DC promotion - does the DC need to dynamically update the forest root
and the domain the DC is in?
(e.g. I'm promoting a DC for company.com, does the DC need to do DDNS to
both company.com AND msroot.company (the forest root domain)?
Thanks again,
-James

I believe that that would be a BIND specific situation and allow-update or
update-policy can be used, but both directives are "per zone".
If you have two AD Domains that you want to enable dynamic update on, then
yes.
But using BIND for AD in all honesty is quite painful. But if you must

Easy question for the group -
I have a forest rood domain: msroot.company
I have a domain: company.com
We use BIND. My question: do I need an "allow-update" entry for both
zones
or just the forest root zone for proper dynamic update operation?
Thanks in advance,
James
