Hi there..

I have an Active Directory Integrated DNS setup...

DC01 is the root server, hosting DNS for AD domain
company.com - with forward and reverse zones

I have another machine - REMOTE01, hosting DNS for AD domain
remote.company.com - with its own forward and reverse zones

I had setup remote.company.com as a delegate within the root domain
company.com

I have setup both zones to allow updates.

However, While I am able to see zones/DNS records for company.com from
remote.company.com, I cannot see DNS records within remote.company.com
from company.com.

What do I need to do so that all records within the zone for
remote.company.com automatically updates/appears at the root server
(company.com) ?

Is this Win2k or Win2k3?
Win2k3 is easy, add company.com as a conditional forwarder with the IP of
the company.com DNS.

If Win2k, there is only two ways, forward from the remote.company.com DNS to
the company.com DNS with "Do not use recursion" checked on the forwarders
tab. OR, create a secondary zone for company.com on the remote.company.com
DNS server.

Hi there

On the DNS server of remote.company.com, a secondary zone exists for
company.com - and that zone is populated with information for company.com.
The doesnt seem to be the problem.

The problem is on the DNS server of company.com
there is a delegation called "remote" within the company.com foward lookup
zone.
this delegation container only contains the IP address of the DNS server of
remote.company.com

What I am wanting is all the zone information from remote.company.com DNS
appearing on the DNS of company.com

Hope that is clearer

In a delegation scenario, one delegates the child zone name from the parent
to the child's DNS servers. What you are seeing is default behavior with
this scenario, therefore you will not see the zone info under your
company.com zonename. All you will see is the reference to the DNS server
that will resolve that zone data.

Matter of fact, using a forwarder that is set on the child DNS sending it to
the parent DNS, will be the mechanism used to resolve the parent data,
therefore a secondary zone of the parent in the child DNS in this scenario
is NOT required either.

If you just want to "see" what is in the child zone from the parent server,
you can simply add the child DNS server itself to the parent DNS server's
console. This way you can "see" all of the zones on that server, or any
server you may want to add.

Keep in mind, to forward from the parent to the ISP or some other outside
DNS for efficient Internet resolution.
