Re: Site Question

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry



hi ulf,

that was exactly what happened. when i checked the _ldap and _kerberos
records of site A in the dns i saw also records from domain controller B. i
have absolutely no idea why and how this records came in. we created the
sites with the standard mmc snap in, not something special. the interesting
thing is, i deleted the sites with the "active directory sites and services"
.. i noticed that a deletion of a site with the snap in does not invoke a
deletion in the dns also. so i deleted the sites manually in the dns. after
the replication, the sites were completely gone. when i recreated the sites
all dns records got created correct. so now i have a site A with records
from domaincontroller A and a site B with records from domain controller B.
at least my sites are working now but i have no idea why they got created
wrong which makes me a little bit nervous. by the way i found a great
article from ms regarding this topic:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306602/en-us . do you know other articles or
whitepapers with a detailed description of sites and dns and when will be
what created in the zones ?

thanks for the help

regards

wolfgang
