Thanks for the reply. Yes, I admit to cross posting to the W2k DNS board but
didn't know if the two enjoyed the same readership.
To answer Roger's questions, all DC's are at 2003 and the forest is 2003
native. The honest answer is that I am unsure whether any of the zones are
currently in application partitions. I'm embarrassed to say that I haven't
yet looked into creating application directory partitions; we brought the
current domains up under Windows 2000 did not make any major changes to DNS
after upgrading to 2003 last year. Really the only thing we did was change
the scope replication setting from the default "All DC's in the domain" to
"All name servers in the forest" when we added this 3rd name server; does
that alone create the application partition? One of the reasons I have not
yet done more is the fact that our two original name servers are slaves of a
Unix master that refuses (due to political reasons) dynamic updates. So the
top level of our forest is actually not owned by us. However we do own the
four underscore domains and the child domain that contains our two child AD
domains. Any help you can point me to would be greatly appreciated. I just
did a quick query on application partitions at microsoft.com and am going
over kb817470 now. Thanks again for the help.
