Got reverse lookup zones created? It is trying to lookup the name of the
DNS server by its IP, (a reverse lookup). If you don't have a reverse
lookup zone with the records in there it will return this message.

Subject: [THIN] OT - DNS issues on new W2K DC


I thought I could get some answers here...I have upgraded an NT4.0
domain to
W2K with AD, and all went smoothly.  But, DNS is not working the way it
should (nslookup responds with a "can't find server name for address..."
message).  All pc's can see each other and the internet, forward lookup
zone
is set to AD-integrated, dynamic updates, and reverse lookup zone is set
to
standard-primary, dynamic updates.  The domain name is 'domain.com', the
NetBIOS name is 'domain', and the pc name is 'newserver.domain'   I feel
it
will cause problems, as we are set to install Exchange 2000 soon, and if
it
can't find a DNS server, it will error.  Any advice or resources?  We
received no errors during setup, which makes it even more puzzling...
Thanks
in advance,=20
