Re: A records go missing.

Nope it's an A record.

I've never found a good explanation for using CNAME's. Perhaps as a pointer
to foreign A records?

below:
Hi all,

I have a few A records that I manually added go missing. They are
static IP's that are excluded from the DHCP scope. DNS is AD
integrated in a W2k3 Domain.

It seems to only be the machine name that goes missing, not other A
records pointing to the same IP. I.e. I have server1 = 192.168.10.102
and companyweb = 192.168.15.102 but only the server1 entry goes
missing.
How can I go about troubleshooting this? The DNS.log is full of alot
information and hard to decipher what it means.

Thanks heaps in advance
Lincoln

What type of record are you trying to create? Is the record you are trying
to create but keeps disappearing a CNAME (alias) record?

Instead of the website you're using, I suggest to use OEx (Outlook Express
or any other newsreader), and configure a news account, pointing to
news.microsoft.com. This is a direct link to the Microsoft Public
Newsgroups. It is FREE and requires NO ISP's Usenet account. OEx allows
you to easily find, track threads, cross-post, sort by date, poster's
name, watched threads or subject.
It's easy:
