You mean when you go into DNS properties, Root Hints tab, it is empty or
grayed out?
If it's grayed out, it means a Root zone exists, which looks like a period:
("."). When a root zone exists, possibly due to when dcpromo was ran on a
2000 machine, the server wasn't connected to the internet, therefore dcpromo
assumed when it configured DNS that the system was not meant to have
internet connectivity. So dcpromo creates the root zone. If it exists,
delete it, refresh the console, or close it and open it again, and check the
Root Hints tab.
If this is not the case, please elaborate, and explain what container you
are speaking of (one of the partitions in AD that you are viewing using ADSI
Edit?).
