dnsapi fails to register

[Gordon]

I keep getting this error in event viewer and dont know
how to solve it.

Also its trying to send an update to server ip
192.175.48.1, this is not a server i know of, where is it
getting this ip from? any help would be great

The system failed to register pointer (PTR) resource
records (RRs) for network adapter
with settings:

Adapter Name : {F39DB218-719A-4E8F-B442-90F3192D88F8}
Host Name : mail
Adapter-specific Domain Suffix : FPSGGLASGOW.local
DNS server list :
195.184.228.6, 195.184.228.7
Sent update to server : 192.175.48.1
IP Address : 192.168.0.120

The reason that the system could not register these RRs
was because (a) either the DNS server does not support
the DNS dynamic update protocol, or (b) the authoritative
zone where these records are to be registered does not
allow dynamic updates.

To register DNS pointer (PTR) resource records using the
specific DNS domain name and IP addresses for this
adapter, contact your DNS server or network systems
administrator.

Host Name : mail
Adapter-specific Domain Suffix : FPSGGLASGOW.local
DNS server list :
195.184.228.6, 195.184.228.7<-------------remove these and use only the
local DNS.
Sent update to server : 192.175.48.1
IP Address : 192.168.0.120

That IP is prisoner.iana.org, which is the blackhole server for private IPs.
It is being forwarded there because you have your providers IP listed for
DNS.
-and/or-
Create a reverse lookup zone named 168.192.in-addr.arpa. Set it to allow
Dynamic updates and this will go away.

I had the reverse lookup zone set to allow dynamic
updates and its still doing this.

any other ideas?

Did you remove your ISP's DNS from TCP/IP Properties?

 

[Gordon]

No, my ISP's dns is in the tcp settings

I know they are, you need to take them out, as I said twice before.

Sorry if this sounds stupid, but if i take them out, how
can i access web pages?

You have a DNS server, as good as, if not better than your ISP's DNS server
because it is local. All your local machines must use your local DNS
including and even the machine DNS is running on. Yes, that means the
machine DNS is on will use its own local IP address for DNS.
To help your DNS server resolve external names, you can optionally configure
it with a forwarder to your ISP, this is done in the DNS server properties,
not in TCP/IP properties. If the forwarding option is grayed out delete the
dot "." Forward Lookup Zone, then refresh the DNS console or close and
reopen it, this will enable Root Hints which allows your DNS to contact the
Internet Root Servers to resolve names it does not have in its zone and
gives you the option to enable a forwarder.
After you point the DC to the local DNS you will need to restart the
Netlogon Service and run ipconfig /flushdns and ipconfig /registerdns. This
will create the necessary SRV records and register its addresses.
