Single Host, Multiple NetBIOS Names

[Nejmos Saqeb]

Greetings,

I 've 2 NICs on Domain Controller, DNS is running in "AD Integrated mode".
Lets say, I've :

NIC -1 : 192.168.0.1
NIC -2 : 192.168.1.1

The hostname of the DC is "A1". But I want to bind IP: 192.168.0.1 with "A1"
and 192.168.1.1 with "A2" hostnames on the same box. What are the proper
steps I should do? I manually created another Host A record with
"192.168.1.1 binded to A2 in the DNS and it was pinging but upon accessing
the hostname with a NETBIOS name i.e. A2, it says "A duplicate name exists
on the network".

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

You can't duplicate host names on a network. So don't. Rethink your
naming scheme.

Mr. Jeff, re read my question, am not duplicating the Hostname.
