Sorry for the off topic post but I know someone here will have a easy answer
to this question.
I currently host DNS records for our Active Directory domain on our domain
controller (Win 2003 with local domain "COMMARTS.LAN") and want to create a
local only NON-AUTHORITATIVE "A"
The term DNS "authority" applies to entire zones, not to single DNS records.
and associated "PTR" record for
image.commarts.com while the AUTHORITATIVE commarts.com DNS records are
hosted by our ISP. I need to do this temporarily while we are developing
the website and want the record to be available to my Active Directory
members without having to mess with local hosts files.
Make the AD DNS authoritative for commarts.com as a (hidden) slave of
the zone on the ISP's master DNS, and forget about spoofing the zone
authority. Admin the forward zone on the ISP DNS to contain the
temporary A record for image.commarts.com.
That's the forward zone, and do the same for the reverse zone.
MS AD DNS isn't anything special in its RFC-compatible features.
