i don't understand the problem. a child domain was created and the domain is not delegated but a subdomain of the root domain. Right now the root dns is authoritive for the root and child domain.
why can't this person just delegate authority from the root dns/dc to the child dns/dc? just right click the zone and delegate and browse to the dns server you installed in the child domain and windows dns wizard will take care of all the glue records for you... am I completley off base here?
