I need to delegate management of part of our DNS namespace to another
department in our organization, very similar to the example in
the follwoing 'Delegating Zones' link:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/en/server/help/default.asp?
url=/windows2000/en/server/help/sag_DNS_imp_DelegatingZones.htm

Using the names in this example, I need to a create a new zone for the
subdomain 'us.example.microsoft.com' with the authoritative
DNS server for the new subdomain named 'ns1.us.example.microsoft.com'. I
have run the New Delegation wizard on the 'example.microsoft.com'
subdomain to create the 'us.example.microsoft.com' subdomain. Then I added
the 'ns1.us.example.microsoft.com' DNS server to the
'ns1.microsoft.com' DNS server's zone's properties. I am unable to create
the A RR for 'ns1.us.example.microsoft.com' in the 'microsoft.com' zone
as stated in the article (glue chasing). I cannot add 'ns1.us.example' to
the 'microsoft.com' zone. It will not accept any periods. Can someone
please help? My DNS server runs Windows 2000 AS and is on our external
network and it is the authoritative server for our Internet domain. Thank
you.

Edward
