Currently in an NT 4 domain with a Windows 2003 DNS server. The Bind
server is the SOA for the zone. Obviously, we are not using Active
Directory Integrated DNS nor do I know at this point if that would
happen. We will have a Windows 2003 domain controller in the next
couple of weeks. When we try to run dynamic DDNS from an XP client,
the computer cannot register itself on the Windows 2003 DNS server as
it is not the SOA for that zone. We have proved that the computer
can register itself on the Windows 2003 DNS server, if the Windows
2003 DNS server is the SOA for the zone. There are no plans to
remove BIND. Does anyone have a solution? I am thinking that some
entries must be made on the BIND server, but I am not familiar with
it. I have seen some solutions, when using Active Directory
Integrated DNS.

You should really put the zone on the DC and store it in AD where it will be
more secure.

If you have a lot of records on the BIND, I'd suggest adding the zone to the
Win2k3 as a secondary, then change it to a primary, then change it to ADI.
Then delete the primary from the BIND and create a secondary of the ADI
master.
