DNS

everything seems to be fine on my network no problems with
dns at all except:

if i go to a command prompt and type:

nslookup
set type=srv
set type=srv
_ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.mydomain.com

it then shows me:

Server: dnsserver.mydomain.com
Address: (the ip address for my dns server)

*** dnsserver.mydomain.com can't find
_ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.mydomain.com: non-existant domain

--------------------

it should be showing me something similar to this:

Server: dnsserver.mydomain.com
Address: (the ip address for my dns server)

_ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.mydomain.com SRV service location:
priority =0
weight =100
port =389
svr hostname=server1.mydomain.com

etc etc

---------------

what do i need to look at or correct on my dns server to
correct this? i'm not getting any errors that i am aware
of and it is functioning fine............. i dont want to
leave it alone and it come back and bite me a year from now

any ideas?

thanks!
 
I suppose the first question is: is the _ldap entry
actually present in your domain zone?

You can run a netdiag /fix to make sure
the AD DNS records are present and properly
configured. If it still doesn't work, use the debug
option in nslookup to see what's going on, and
double-check that you've typed in the FQDN
properly (try putting a "." at the end of the name).
