I have multiple domains in the same tree but in different sites.
How should DNS be configured? Should all DCs always use themselves as DNS?

Should the DNSes in the childdomains have the same info regarding their
parentdomain as the parent DNSes have?

What should it look like??

Ever since the "DNS Island" issue was reported, I've always made it a
practice to stagger the DNS entries. DNSA will use DNB for Primary, and DSNA
for secondary. The reverse will be for DNSB. i know this issue is supposedly
fixed in Win2K3 DNS, but I've, so far, seen no need to change my practice.

Click to expand...
From the Parent DNS, you will create a delegated zone for Child Domain and
specify the IP addresses of the DNS servers in the Child Domain. On the
Child Domain, you will configure the DNS servers to forward to the DNS
servers in the Parent Domain. On the Child DNS servers, you will create the
Child zone.
