DNS Reverse Lookup Zone

[Rodney]

I think I am having problems with the reverse lookup zone,
as it is not updating the records with the most current
information. As an example, we are using DHCP on our
network. We changed the name of one of the pc's on the
network for quite a while (about mid June), but in reverse
lookup zone is still showing up as the old name, and not
picking up the new one. How can this be fixed so it can
pick up the new values.

Make sure updates are set to yes and enable Scavenging at the DNS server
property level and at the reverse zone level. Stick with the default
settings.
