I understand how to migrate over the DNS zones. The
problem is that in the existing DNS server the zones are
divided up into multiple zones. For example 2k.test.com
and child.2k.test.com. For what ever reason they made
the two zones seperate. I would prefer it be be one zone
on a windows 2000 domain controller. The first is an
empty root 2k domain and the child is our production 2k
domain. So when I make them secondary zones on the 2k
servers prior to changing to primary I have two zones
that migrated over. Only way I can see to get one zone
is start over and rebuilt dns with netdiag /fix. This
seems fine for the SRV records just a little concerned
that some of the dynamic dns records did not repopulate
evern after forcing ipconfig /registerdns.
