DNS Strange Scenario

[Andrea Rinaldi]

Scenario:
Thousands Windows XP in a AD Domain.
There are some Windows XP of another domain that need to receive DHCP
address form local server and keep the DNS static addresses which
points to theyr own domain.
No problem since now, but problem occours because clients can't
register theyr DNS name in the correct DNS Domain.
This happend because the DHCP attempt to register dns Names instead of
the client.
How can i do to make the clients regularly register theyr names into
DNS server?


Many thanks

In the DHCP Console, on the server and scope properties sheet, DNS tab,
clear the "Enable DNS dynamic updates..." check box.

Kevin made that suggestion because you wanted the clients to register and
not have DHCP do it.

Instead of the website you're using, try using OEx (Outlook Express
or any other newsreader), and configure a news account, pointing to
news.microsoft.com. Anonymous access. It's free - no username or password
required nor do you need a Newsgroup Usenet account with your ISP. It
connects directly to the Microsoft Public Newsgroups. OEx allows you
o easily find, track threads, cross-post, sort by date, poster's name,
watched threads or subject. It's easy:

Ditto to what Ace said, this is what you wanted according to your post,
you'll have to clear that check box.
Now, if you want your local AD domain member clients to register in DNS
without this setting, you can enable a group policy to force your AD Domain
member clients to register.
It is here:
Default Domain Policy
-Computer Configuration
-Adminstrative templates
-Network
-DNS Client Dynamic Updates(Enabled)
