Dynamic DNS not working

Dynamic DNS updates is set to YES, but replication between my local DC's are
not working.

Error: “The DSA operation is unable to proceed because of a DNS lookup
failureâ€

When I restart the netlogon service of a DC, i get the following error:
"Event ID: 5773
Description: The DNS server for this DC does not support dynamic DNS. Add
the DNS records from the file SystemRoot%\System32\Config\netlogon.dns' to
the DNS server serving the domain referenced in that file."

It seems as if Dynamic DNS (DDNS) is not working properly?

Can you post the ipconfig /all from the DC, the AD Domain name, and the list
of zones in DNS?
 
Hello!

You need to make sure that all of your DCs can find the appropriate srv
records in the DNS. A good place to start is using PINGs. It's not a
direct as NSLOOKUP, but it will make sure you are seeing exactly what
the DC is when querying -- Jjust make sure you don't have a firewall or
something like that blocking ICMP.

What you want to do is PING the domain's FQDN from each DC. If you do
not get a return from the PDCe, you are definitely having a DNS problem.

From there, start using NSLOOKUP and IPCONFIG /all to track down which
DNS server and zone is the problem.

Also, if you are not AD integrating your DNS, you will want to consider
this. There are a lot of benefits and a few possible caveats, but it is
generally advisable for Internal DNS.

Finally, if you have CAs in your environment and are requiring signing
between DCs or secure DNS updates, a problem with the CA or certificate
chain can cause this.

Send on the information Kevin was asking for and we can go from there.
