HelpPls

Hello -

I recently created a child domain to our Corporate domain
(child.corporate.local). I installed DNS on the new child DC's and made one
a GC.

Are there any settings or configurations in particular that I need to set,
IE in DNS etc...

Thanks -

Sean
 
Hi

Depending on your environment, you may want to configure forwarders to
corporate.local DNS servers and create a delegation in the corporate.local
zone for child. Machines in child.corporate.local need to be able to find
_msdcs.corporate.local (assuming this corporate.local is the forest root
domain).

Another approach would be to configure secondary zones of
_msdcs.corporate.local on the DNS servers in child.

It really depends how you want to deal with cross domain name resolution and
whether you need external name resolution too.

Kind regards
