Hi,

I have a Windows 2003 Master server with 2 nics and each with their own IP 
address.
They are each configured in different DNS domains.

When I run bpclntcmd -hn [masterserver] , it comes back with 2 ip 
addresses, ie:
        bpclntcmd -hn abcdefghijkl
                host abcdefghijkl: abcdefghijkl.junkA.COM at 16.1.1.10 
(0xxxxxxxx)
                host abcdefghijkl: abcdefghijkl.junkA.COM at 16.1.1.120 
(0xxxxxxxx)

But if I do per IP address, then I get the following:

        bpclntcmd -ip 16.1.1.120 
                checkhaddr: host   : abcdefghijkl: abcdefghijkl.junkB.com 
at 16.1.1.120 (0xxxxxxxx)
                checkhaddr: aliases:
and 

        bpclntcmd -ip 16.1.1.10 
                checkhaddr: host   : abcdefghi-BK: abcdefghi-BK.junkC.com 
at 16.1.1.10 (0xxxxxxxx)
                checkhaddr: aliases:

junkA.COM is the machines hostname domain
junkB.COM is the domain for Prod NIC
junkB.COM is the domain for BACKUP NIC

"nslookup" only comes back with one result in both forward and reverse 
lookup - as it should !

Anyone have any ideas without mucking around with hosts and lmhosts?

Also - NetBIOS does not need to be enabled on the backup NIC but does on 
the production NIC. (That is the reason for the hostname of abcdefghijkl 
=12 characters.)
We setup the completely different hostnames in DNS (limiting the hostname 
name to 12 chars) to ensure NETBIOS does not get confused - but still 
bpclntcmd comes back with the wrong info ! 

Anyone with ideas please...


Best regards,

JdS
