I am recieving this error when running netdiag /fix:

[FATAL]: The DNS registration for dc.domain.com is incorrect on all DNS
servers.

From what I can tell all the relevant entries are in DNS.

WIthout any additional info about your infrastructure or configuration, and
provided you are referring to a netdiag message, that's normal if you have
multiple DC/DNS servers. If a DC/DNS server has multiple NICs, that *can* be
a concern. Otherwise, it can be safely ignored as long as there are no
errors in your Event logs or anywhere else and assuming if you are ONLY
using your internal DNS servers on all your machines.

If there are further concerns, please post the netdiag results and an
ipconfig /all of your two or more DCs, so we can take a closer look at your
specific configurations to better help.

Thanks,

This is a netdiag error.

We only have a single DC/DNS server although there are external DNS servers.
The server does have mulitple NICs and is running ISA server and RRAS.

I am not experiencing any errors in the event log or any other issues so
from what you are saying I should be able to safely ignore this error.

Thank you for your assistance.

You are welcome. One thing, if there are multiple NICs, and there's an
external DNS address on the outside NIC, the netdiag may be saying it's
contacting that server to check it's records.

Just as best practice, ensure the outer NIC is at the top of the binding
order (in Network Connections, Advanced, Advanced settings).
