Re: DNS Redesign Issue

the dallas.company.com is a child domain right?
you can in newly created ad intergrated zone pointing to the tld or create a
stubzone on the domain and replicate it accross that new domain.

I plan to use stub zones in the top level domains. The issue I am having
is
getting the dns data from dallas.company.com in the tld domain to the
newly
created ad intergrated zone. I would like to do this without manually
recreating each record.

Thanks,

Jason

Hi

Currently we have one root domain in a single AD forest. Under that

we
have 9 child domians, all one layer below the root. All DC's are 2003.

Hoooo my GOD so many domains, did you had any especial reason to make 10
domains?

What I would like to do is create AD integrated zones for each domain
and
deligate athority from the primary zone, company.com. The problem that
I
am
running in to is how to get the data from the subdomains out of the
primary
zone, company.com, and in to the newly created AD intergrated zone. I
only
want the information that is critical to each domain. (i.e. for
dallas.company.com I only want the information below the dallas folder
in
company.com.)

Basically you need to create a tld DNS domain make it AD Integrated, and
delegate the child zone to the other DCs in sub domains, by delegating
the
zones the tld domain knows where to find the NS for these domains, the
problem should come how the child domains resolve the tld domain, and
there
several methods for this, but you're replicating the tld to the child
domains so you need not to worried about that.

I am trying to redesign DNS for a company I just joinedbut I have come
across
an issue that I'm not sure how to get around.

Currently we have one root domain in a single AD forest. Under that
root
we
have 9 child domians, all one layer below the root. All DC's are 2003.

DNS is setup as follows. The root domain contains one DNS server with
a
single primary zone of company.com. Each child domain has a secondary
"copy"
of this zone on at least one server in the domain. Within the primary
zone
there are folders for each domains subdomain. (Example:
dallas.company.com)
Each domain controller is configured to write back to the primary zone
to
make updates.

What I would like to do is create AD intergrated zones for each domain
and
deligate athority from the primary zone, company.com. The problem that
I
am
running in to is how to get the data from the subdomains out of the
primary
zone, company.com, and in to the newly created AD intergrated zone. I
only
want the information that is critical to each domain. (i.e. for
dallas.company.com I only want the information below the dallas folder
in
company.com.)

Any suggestions?

Thank you,

Jason
