Hello,

Our company has removed our Windows DNS servers for Linux DNS
Servers. Ever since that has happend everytime or really sporadically
users that log into the domain are constatly having to relogin while they
are still logged into the domain. Like exchange asks users (outlook) to
enter there user name and password when they are already logged in. I know
it defenently has to do with the Linux DNS servers because it used to work
before. I know that we can just put W2K back as DNS but we are trying to
migrate everything to Linux.

Thanx.
 
Why? If your pcs are Windows and you use AD, then use w2k dns. There is no
compelling reason to use bind for dns on an AD network other then for public
domain servers on the external side (use w2k or bind there.) If you don't
use windows servers (i.e. AD, NT, etc) then using bind internally is fine
too. I would not make changes like this, just to be different to anti-ms or
something. MSs DNS works well and fast and is very easy to manage and
integrates very well with AD and dynamic updates from windows clients. If
you don't need any of that, then I would post the question on the public
Bind Ng.

Define 'everything'. Any why the 'migration'? BTW... you never test in
production. The most important part of any migration is planning.
