RE: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: New DNS Server

[Andy Schmidt]

I have done this in two ways.  You can export the registry and then use an editor that can handle line breaks and other control characters (such as MS Words) to massage the text file before reimporting it on the new server.   Or, you can create a list of domains (using the DNS command line tools) and then use a little .CMD procedure to create the secondary domain for all these domain names. Here is a sample batch script (mm.mm.mm.mm is the IP of your primary DNS server, nn.nn.nn.nn are the IP addresses of other subordinate DNS servers to which you permit zone transfers)   @ECHO OFF if %1.==. goto error01   @ECHO ON DNSCMD \\YOURSERVER /ZoneAdd %1 /Secondary mm.mm.mm.mm /file %1.dns DNSCMD \\YOURSERVER /ZoneResetSecondaries %1 /SecureList nn.nn.nn.nn nn.nn.nn.nn @ECHO OFF   :Done GOTO :EOF   :error01 ECHO. ECHO Missing Parameters! ECHO. ECHO Syntax:  CreateSecondary domainname ECHO Example: CreateSecondary MyDomain.com PAUSE Missing Parameters GOTO :EOF       Best Regards Andy Schmidt Phone:  +1 201 934-3414 x20 (Business) Fax:    +1 201 934-9206   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Evans Martin Sent: Thursday, October 20, 2005 01:14 AM To: Declude.JunkMail@declude.com Subject: [Declude.JunkMail] OT: New DNS Server I’m running Windows 2003 and MS DNS on my primary name server.  Now I need to slave another server to it.  What is the quickest way to transfer all of the domains from my old server to my new one and change them all from master to slave zones?   Thanks, Evans Martin   --- Evans L.
