Hello all,

We allow our W2000 domain controllers to update a unix
dns server running bind 9.2. I need to change an NS
entry in the zone and can't figure out where the entry
comes from originally. There seems to be no reference to it
in Active Directory, nor can I find any sort of stub or
configuration file that inserts it in the zone file.
I've tried changing the entry in the Unix dns zone file,
deleting the journal file, even deleting the zone file.
The offending entry keeps returning!

I'm not a Windows expert and would be grateful if someone
could point me in the right direction. No DNS server runs
on the Windows servers but WINS does (in what I'm told is
a restricted fashion). What service is responsible for
sending the updates? Is it Active Directory as I believe or
some other service?

Thanks from a harried administrator.

If you go to AD Users and Computers and view the avanced options you may see
the DNS stuff. Usually you have an AD intergrated zone for AD the you have
the UNIX DNS a secondary for that Zone. IF that is the case open the DNS
mmc and there will be NS tabs that list the name servers for the domain.
