(the red flag of SBS brings out you know who)
SBS does the best when it is the DNSer... and when it is the DNSer... it
does all that you need when it's installed.
"SBS" does the necessary DNS zones when it's set up to be the main
cheese of the network..... how did you set up this box?
Ask a SBSer what dcpromo is and we go "dc-what?".
Our install wizard does that for us... we don't ever use the command
dcpromo ... unless we are migrating a SBS box "into" an existing network
or Swing migratin' from one to another.

Usually dcpromo creates all these zones. Windows creates these zones in a forest partition. If you have a linux DNS server just create another slave zone of _msdcs.example.com. The gray one is only the delegation.

Ok, so basically _msdcs is just a separate zone. Do Windows DNS setups
usually do this? I'm using SBS.
I have a bind DNS server running on a linux machine with a slave zone
for example.com. The AXFR doesn't have those records (aside from the
NS record). So what you're saying is that I need to setup another slave
zone for the _msdcs subdomain?

Hi Mike,
the gray one is the delegation of the zone. The _msdcs ist a subdomain of your
forest root. Because it is needed all over the forest it is delegated.

I'm not sure I understand. In DNS admin I see two zones. One
for _msdcs.example.com with all the usual _msdcs records and
one for example.com which incedentally has an NS record for
_msdcs.example.com. The little folder thingy for this _msdcs is grey
which I guess signifies that it's some kind of link to the other zone?
So I understand why the _msdcs records other than the one NS record are
not transferring but I don't understand why the structure is split into
two zones and if I can/should do something about it.

Does anyone know why the _msdcs records are not returned in an AXFR DNS
query? This means that slave zones will not have those records and that
software querying for a domain controller may not find one.
