Alright, very simple setup here.
One domain with two DCs
DC1's primary DNS svr is DC2, secondary is DC1
DC2's primary DNS svr is DC1, secondary is DC2
One AD Integrated Forward Lookup Zone
One AD Integrated Reverse Lookup Zone (yes, only one subnet at the
moment)
Forwarders setup going to ISP (not necessary, but slightly better
performance)
So, I go to run dcdiag /test:dns and everything passes except "Forw"
I get an error message for each forwarder, and each root-hint. It's
the same on each one...
DNS server: 128.63.2.53 (h.root-servers.net.) 1 test failure on this
DNS server
This is not a valid DNS server.
PTR record query for the 1.0.0.127.in-addr.arpa. failed on the DNS
server 128.63.2.53
Now, why in the world would dcdiag expect to find localhost
(127.0.0.1) on a public DNS server? Maybe I'm reading that wrong, but
it doesn't make sense to me. Everything appears to be working fine,
both internal and external name resolution...it just bothers me that I
have all those errors. Any help would be appreciated!
