RE: [ActiveDir] Reverse lookup Zone (Integration with Bind and AD-DNS)

Unless you have some reason to use the reverse lookup zone from your test.com…I’d leave the reverse lookup zones in the ad.test.com (integrated) since all of your computers are already pointing to ad.test.com for resolution and you’ve delegated ad.test.com (integrated as well).  Configure conditional forwarding for All other DNS domains to point to at least two of your BIND servers and check the Do not use recursion for this domain (I’m sure you don’t want to have your internal DC’s roaming the internet for name servers)…   My penny worth…   -vC     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 17, 2006 12:16 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] Reverse lookup Zone (Integration with Bind and AD-DNS)   Hello all,    Here is the scenario:    Bind DNS 9.2 - test.com Active Directory integrated-DNS - ad.test.com (delegated sub domain) Ad.test.com configured to forward to test.com DNS servers All clients point to ad.test.com DNS servers         What has been the overall consensus as it relates to placement of reverse lookup zones in this config?  I have typically left the reverse lookup zones in the root in this situation (test.com).       Tia, RC
