Add the new IP address and make sure DNS listens on both the new and old
address. Add the new DNS IP address as a DNS server to the DNS client on
the DC.
Run ipconfig /flushdns & ipconfig /registerdns
restart the Netlogon service
run netdiag /fix
run netdiag /test:dns /v and look for errors.
If all passes the DNS test, change the DNS address on the clients, after all
clients are using the new DNS IP without problems, remove the old IP
address, run ipconfig /registerdns and restart the netlogon service. Re-run
netdiag /test:dns /v and look for errors.
