Domain resolving outside

[nobody]

I have a lab setup with one forest and two domains, parent.com and
anotherparent.com. anotherparent.com is an actual domain(not mine). I
have dns setup on both DC's. Anotherparent.com is resolving to the
outside domain instead of my test subnet 10.0.0.x. what can I look at
in DNS to resolve this issue?

thanks

All servers/clients pointing only at the internal DNS server IP for
resolution, no external/ISP DNS servers in their ip configs? That is the
right setup...use forwarders on your DNS server or use root hints for
external resolution.

on my W3k server I had an outside dns server in my ip properties. I
took that out and it still resolved. I did an flushdns but no luck.
what could I do or check to fix this.
thanks.

Also clear your DNS server cache by rt-clicking DNS, clear cache.
Also, are both zones created under the one DNS server you are using? If not,
create both zones.

Or are you using two separate DNS servers, one for each zone name?

both my AD domains happen to be domains on the internet(not mine).
when domain 1 trys to query domain2 it points to the outside domain.
how do I tell my dns to point to my domains instead?

When I do a netdiag dns test this is what I get

DNS test . . . . . . . . . . . . . : Failed
[WARNING] The DNS entries for this DC are not registered correctly
on DNS server '10.0.0.80'. Please wait for 30 minutes for DNS server
replication.
[FATAL] No DNS servers have the DNS records for this DC
registered.

Is 10.0.0.80 the correct IP address? Do you have connectivity to it? Have
you checked the event logs on that DNS server?
Can you run ipconfig /registerdns on the server that is failing the netdiag
test?

10.0.0.80 is the correct IP
I ran ipconfig /registerdns, with the following results

Windows 2000 IP Configuration

een initiated. Any errors will be reported in the Event Viewer in 15
