DNS
69 TopicsBPA Errors: DNS can't resolve GC, Kerberos, PDC Resource Record, etc.
Hello, I've been poking around this for hours now and could use another set of eyes. This server has been the PDC for quite some time but I discovered the last people that managed this place, didn't demote the old 2008R2 server (thankfully it still existed virtualized). So I was able to do a graceful demotion of that and removed it from the domain. I'm now trying to resolve some other errors in that come up in the BPA scan... All reference DNS and I just can't figure this out. I've been beating head against the wall trying to understand what's happening, This is MS Server Standard 2022 only 1 DC and DNS. (yeah I know, don't get me started, but it's a really small office)... Would love some suggestions. Thanks!178Views1like16CommentsDNS record auto registered even the auto registration option was unchecked
Hello guys, I have an DC which have two NICs, A for Domain service and B for camera server. I don't want the IP address of NIC B registered in our DNS, so I uncheck the auto register option in the advance setting of NIC B. However, the IP address of it still keep registering t our DNS even I have manually deleted that option. I have checked the steps in the official article and it doesn't help. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-server/networking/unwanted-nic-registered-dns-mulithomed-dc Any suggestion is much appreciated.104Views0likes2CommentsWindows DNS server crash?

Does anyone know if Windows Server 2025 is planning to support native DNS over HTTPS or DNS over TLS? As of now, windows clients can be configured to support this, but MS DNS is not DOH or DOT compliant. I am just wondering if this is being considered or if it is on the roadmap.

I installed a new Server 2022 DC on my network as the only DC. It serves DNS for our network and for a few weeks all has been working fine. However, lately I have been having a problem using Outlook to access my secondary email address at comcast.net. For long periods the attempt to download email fails. I did some checking and found that when I do a nslookup on imap.comcast.net I get this: Non-authoritative answer: Name: imap.comcast.net (note, there are no IP addresses) If I do the same but specify Google's DNS server (8.8.8.8) I get: Non-authoritative answer: Name: imap.ge.xfinity.com Addresses: 2001:558:fc0a:3:f816:3eff:fea5:2243 2001:558:fc0a:3:f816:3eff:fe95:679f 2001:558:fc0a:3:f816:3eff:fe0c:7c51 2001:558:fc0a:3:f816:3eff:fe51:b939 2001:558:fc0a:3:f816:3eff:fee8:1979 2001:558:fc0a:3:f816:3eff:fe6b:52a6 2001:558:fc0a:3:f816:3eff:fe5d:49ac 2001:558:fc0a:3:f816:3eff:fe84:7ff1 2001:558:fc0a:3:f816:3eff:fef5:7c75 2001:558:fc0a:3:f816:3eff:fe8d:2a36 2001:558:fc0a:3:f816:3eff:fe57:df5e 2001:558:fc11:9:f816:3eff:fee9:ffd6 2001:558:fc11:9:f816:3eff:fedd:4bc5 2001:558:fc11:9:f816:3eff:fe40:d128 2001:558:fc11:9:f816:3eff:fec1:ef59 2001:558:fc11:9:f816:3eff:fe48:d86d 96.118.18.255 96.118.18.251 96.118.18.249 96.118.18.240 96.118.18.254 96.118.17.101 96.118.17.82 96.118.18.242 96.118.19.1 96.118.19.5 96.118.18.230 96.118.17.194 96.118.18.11 96.118.19.0 96.116.224.191 96.116.224.174 Aliases: imap.comcast.net302Views0likes0Commentsdns sortorder bug introduced over 10 years ago
As of Windows server 2012 there was a sort order bug introduced in the dns manager. All info is treated as a tekst string eventhough they are not. Therefore ip numbers are sorted wrong, dates are sorted wrong and managing the dns sometimes becomes a nightmare when sorting is needed. The solution is so simple, sort the original numbers, an ipnumer is a 32bit number. A timestamp is a number respresenting seconds after a start time. Please fix this so 2 comes after 1 and not after 19 or 199, etc. 1 January2024 does NOT follow 1 Jan 2024, there is a whole year of 364 other days in between. Neither does ip number 11.2.3.4. follow 1.2.3.4, nor does 111.2.3.4 😞 I and others have started reporting this bug as soon as it appeared but everytime we got answers like export to Excel (does not help) and other non answers. How hard is it to fix this? Today I need to delete some old dns records that were not properly scavaged. I CANNOT sort on timestamp to get all old records together. 😞466Views0likes0CommentsTrouble with DNS server
Good morning and sorry for my bad english 🙂 I have 2 AD/DNS servers in 2016. In terms of DNS cleaning, it is configured to clean records older than 7 days. The configuration is good at the server level and on the DNS zones. When I run a cleanup manually, I see that it works because I have event ID 2501 with deletion records. I simply have a lot of very old DNS records, which are not static, dating for example from November and which remain. I don't understand why they are not deleted.... Any idea to understand where the problem comes from? THANKS366Views0likes0CommentsEvent 5775, NETLOGON
