That’s just the thing. There
are way too many string choices. You have general string, teletex,
printable, IA5 and Unicode. I basically don’t have any idea when it
would be more appropriate to use the ones besides Unicode. Unicode is by
far the most prevalent

Just the service records. I don't care about the A
records, our process for getting those statically created is pretty
painless. It's the ACLs for dynamic updates that cause us
pain.

This is a bit off the topic of the thread, but since we are
talking about using BIND DNS with AD I'll go ahead and ask. Has anyone
figured out a good way of delegating the update DNS right to your DCs? At

True,
I've had the same experience with SQL and Kerberos.
On the bright side the issues forced all of our server admins to understand
Kerberos and engage my team to make sure that it's working
properly.

A common thing to do in a 'hub and spoke' network is to configure the

if the DC in a spoke site goes down, the client will discover
domain-wide SRV records for only DCs in the hub site. This prevents the
client from authentic

My observation is that MS uses integer8
when they are representing OS data that is manipulated as FILETIME in normal
Windows routines. I’m guessing that the SAM functions use FILETIME
internally, so it was natural to store them natively in AD this way for

Not only is being able to register it important, but also
that DNS resolves to the correct SPN. Let's say you have a SQL server that

Joe,
Your initial posting stated that your root

beside the admin users, i.e. service administrators. I also assume that you’re

I see no reason why WINS would be needed in an empty root domain. If
you did decide to use WINS in this domain, I see no problem with using
the WINS from a child domain.
In our environment, we have three separate AD forests and only one set
of WINS servers.

You should consider having at least one WINS server in the empty root
domain. You will need WINS for NetBIOS name resolution that is still
required by many applications.

Is an empty root with one domain under it still considered a
