Windows 7: How to Prevent the Mouse from Waking your PC
anyway here is a good link on how to install and config a DNS server
:lol: http://labmice.techtarget.com/windows2003/Netwo...
Does anyone know where I can get good information on DNS.
I am running a windows server 2003 with many domains on it.
I will be running mail, web and web mail services.
I will have a single ip address until I can get a second server up
and running .My ISP is hosting my DNS Pointing from my registrar
backup MX Mail.domain www.domain ftp.domain, & .domain
The kind of information I am looking for is like this.(I have searched everywhere)
For each domain I have I have these records (do I need a record for the name of the computer as well and should that record have mail ns and everything else listed below.
FORWARD LOOKUP ZONES.
Start of Authority (SOA) Domain,hostmaster < should the domain be the name of the computer? since the computer has a .local host name. like IBM.LOCAL
Name server. (NS) < should this point to the name of the computer, or the primary domain on the server like IBM.COM not the .LOCAL
Mail Host (A) < my path is mail.myprimarydomain.XX
mail Mail Exchanger (MX) <my setting is [10] mail.myprimarydomain.XX
Mail works great. however when i do the DNS Report I could get better results.
computername Host (A) 192.168.0.200 <local ip address (should all my address point to the local or to the main ip since i only have 1 ip. If I choose not to use the local address do I even need to have the computer name listed in DNS
www Host (A) 192.168.0.200 < I have seen this change to .0.0
losing the .200 (im using headers for my web and my ftp and web work fine)
REVERSE LOOKUP ZONES
(same as parent folder) Start of Authority(SOA computername.computername.,hostmaster.computername
(same as parent folder) Name Server (NS) computername.computername.
i also have one for eachdomain with the path. domain.computername.
Is this all i need in reverse and what can i do to clean up my DNS. if someone knows where I can get help that would be great.

well here's a good tutorial for DNS and Active Directory:
http://www.petri.co.il/how_to_install_active_di...
it shows the Active Directory Installation along with DNS server installation and configuration.
Cheers!!!
