Minus Human Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 Hi all,When you join 2000 or XP PC's to a 2000/2003 AD Domain PC's register themselves in DNS.Why is this> because of Active Directory Functionality and GPO's ? if not can it be stopped and is it a good or bad idea.Thanks Minus Human
jondercik Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 (edited) It depends on your setup. PC's dont even have to be a member of the domain to register themselves in DNS. If you are runing DHCP the DHCP server will register those computers in DNS.It is a good idea because trying to maintain an up to date INTERNAL DNS is a pain. Edited July 27, 2005 by jondercik
Minus Human Posted July 27, 2005 Author Posted July 27, 2005 Thanks jondercik,i would guess that would only count for 2000/2003 dhcp not NT4?ThanksMinus Human
chilifrei64 Posted July 27, 2005 Posted July 27, 2005 DNS didnt become part of Active Directory until Win2k so yes that would only count for 2000/2003 and NOT NT4FYI: you can disable dynamic registration of DHCP clients into DNS on 2000/2003
