RE: [ActiveDir] DNS on dual-home machine

[Creamer, Mark]

Title: Message

I think I just found the answer. There’s an article KB246804 which describes various scenarios affecting dynamic registration. Turns out because this server is a DNS server, the DNS service itself is creating the A record for both NICs. There’s a registry REG_SZ value that when added, along with the address of the specific IP to register, will only register that address. I did that and restarted DNS, and voila, only one address!   Thanks for the ideas folks, as always!   <mc> -----Original Message----- From: Rich Milburn [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2004 1:51 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DNS on dual-home machine   Mark, if you go into your advanced settings (My Network Places Properties, Advanced, Advanced Settings) what is the Connection access order?  I haven’t run into the issue you are, but I wonder if your connection order is different on this one than on the other server that is doing what you want?    It still sounds like the computer thinks that box is still checked.  Did you restart to see if that made a difference?  And what about the DNS servers listed in your TCP/IP properties for each adapter?  Are both adapters pointing to the domainA DNS?  Is WINS registering the other adapter?   Just trying to give you some ideas, not sure if any of these would make a difference as I haven’t seen this before… Rich   From: Creamer, Mark [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2004 12:22 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DNS on dual-home machine   Al, thanks, but that’s what I mentioned below in my posting. I unchecked that box, but it still re-registers. Anything else I can look into?   <mc> -----Original Message----- From: Mulnick, Al [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2004 11:43 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] DNS on dual-home machine   There's a tick box on the NIC properties that tells it to register DNS.  Not near a machine at the moment to remember it exactly.  You want to de-select it and then remove it from the DNS.  Otherwise it will re-register itself on a regular interval.   Al   From: Creamer, Mark [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2004 11:15 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] DNS on dual-home machine I'm having trouble with a system which is dual-homed. Both NICs have private addresses. One NIC is associated with domainA.com, which is an internal-only AD domain. The other NIC is associated with domainB.com, which is an Internet presence domain.   The problem is that on this particular server, *both* IP addresses are registering in DNS on the domainA.com AD domain. I only want the one address associated with that domain to register there.   So far, I have deleted the NIC from the Name server tab in DNS for that zone. A while later it comes back. I looked at the DNS properties for the NIC that I don't want to register, and have un-checked "Register this connection's addresses in DNS." Still it re-appears.   Can I get some guidance on this? It's only happening on one of these servers, not another one which I thought was identical in configuration.   Best regards, Mark -------APPLEBEE'S INTERNATIONAL, INC.
