We have nt 4.0 pdc and a web server nt 4.0 with dns service. Very usually we
take the follow message (event viewer)
Why?
DNS Server encountered a packet addressed to itself
-- IP address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.
The DNS server should never be sending a packet to itself.
This situation usually indicates a configuration error.
Check the following areas for possible self-send configuration errors:
1) Forwarders list. (DNS servers should not forward to themselves).
2) Master lists of secondary zones.
3) Notify lists of primary zones.
4) Delegations of subzones.
Must not contain NS record for DNS server
Example: -> This DNS server dns1.foo.com is the primary for the
zone foo.com.
-> You have delegated the zone bar.foo.com to bardns.bar.foo.com. and
are NOT running the bar.foo.com zone on this DNS (dns1.foo.com).
-> bar.foo.com MUST NOT have an NS record that points at dns1.foo.com.
Note, you should make this check (with nslookup or DNS manager) both on
this DNS server and on the server(s) you delegated the subzone to.
It is possible that the delegation was done correctly, but that the
primary DNS for the subzone, has any incorrect NS record pointing back
at this server. If this incorrect NS record is cached at this server,
then the self-send could result. If found, the subzone DNS server admin
should remove the offending NS record.
