See on the zones properties, that you have DDNS enabled. The actual records
that should be present in your DNS server are located in
%systemroot%\system32\config\netlogon.dns file.
Also maybe check your security settings on the DNS server zone.

Also try running netdiag /fix which can recreate the zone using the contents
of netlogon.dns
 
Hi Gillies,
Make sure the zone type is set to Dynamic Update-Yes. when recreating the
site.

At the command prompt follow the steps below:
- Type Ipconfig /flushdns and press enter
- Type net stop netlogon and press enter. (Wait for the service to
stop.)
- Type net start netlogon and press enter. (Wait for the service to
start.)
- Type Ipconfig /registerdns and press enter.
Close the DNS management console and reopen it. The server should be
registered
and the _ folders should be in place.

I hope this helps.
 
Greetings all DNS gurus,

I can't add a second DC to our Active Directory structure. Running dcpromo,
the operation failed with the error message "domain does not exist or
couldn't be contacted". After diagnostic I found out SRV records were
missing on the DNS servers (AD integrated-zone). The actual zone
(domain.com) does not have any _tcp, _udp, _sites and _msdcs records.

Of course I can ping the ip adress of DC2, and the FDQN of DC1 and DC2 from
DC1 and DC2 DNS server points to DC1.

I killed the zone and rebuilt it with no luck. Any idea on how to get those
records created ?

Thanks in advance
