Be sure that the zone is configured to allow dynamic updates. This may seem obvious, but I've bumped into this more than once because this setting is not the default.

Sollars Sent: Monday, August 27, 2001 10:14 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Clients having trouble connecting to exchange server in AD doma i n. I have a testlab setup where I have DDNS running in a win2000 AD domain with 2 test clients and test Domain contoller and exchange server. Also, in DNS the reverse entries are being made automatically just fine by dhcp users, but I don't seem to see the forward entries for my dhcp/ddns hosts? The dns is AD integrated of course. I think this is what is causing clients from not seeing the Exchange server. I can ping the hostname of the dhcp users, so it seems like the ddns forward entries are made, but I cannpt see them in the dsn database. Why is DDNS only making the reverse host entires and not the forward entries in the DNS database? Any help is appreciated. Anthony L.
