What I'm not quite sure on is this.

The domain we have (the subdomain) is for example domain1.int.mydomain.com.
The dns records for this domain, as far as I can see, are fine. The DC's
also need to add records for the parent domain int.mydomain.com. It is
these records that seem to be the problem. I only have the zone for
domain1.int.mydomain.com on the main dc in the subdomain. This is
configured for dynamic updates and has forwarders to the 2 dns servers in
the parent domain. The other dc's in the subdomain are configured
(currently) to use the dns server on the main dc in the subdomain.

How do updates get to the parent domain? Its the GUID server names that
don't seem to be pushed upstream and so the rest of the dc's complain they
can't find each other despite the fact all the normal machine names in the
subdomain resolve.
