|  And today's poser is ....
Q27. You administer your Company's Windows 2000 network. Your network consusts of 5 Windows 2000 Server computers, 300 Windows 2000 Professional computers, and 10 UNIX servers. One of your Windows 2000 Server computers is your DNS server. The DNS zone is configured as an Active Directory-integrated zone. The DNS zone is also configured to allow dynamic updates.
Users report that although they can access the Windows 2000 computers by host name, they cannot access the UNIX servers by host name. What should you do?
A. Manually add the UNIX servers to the Windows 2000 domain.
B. On the DNS server, manually create a HOSTS file that contains the records for the UNIX servers.
C. Configure a UNIX computer to be a DNS server in a secondary zone.
D. Manually enter A (host) records for the UNIX servers in the zone database.
Good Luck .... see you tomorrow for the answer!! | |

| Narrowed it down to D | |

| My pick is:
B. On the DNS server, manually create a HOSTS file that contains the records for the UNIX servers. | |

The answer is "D". Unix servers do not support dynamic updates of "A" (host) records or for that matter (PTR) records.
You would have to manually add the A record for the Unix server in the zone database. | |

And the answer is ....
Correct Answers: D
A. Incorrect: Mannually adding the UNIX servers to the domain does not add the resource records to the zone database.
B. Incorrect: Creating a HOSTS file on the DNS servers will allow the DNS servers to contact the UNIX servers but will not allow the clients to do so.
C. Incorrect: Configuring a UNIX server to contain the secondary zone will allow the UNIX server to be a backup for all zone database requests, but, by itself, will not provide users the necessary access to UNIX servers.
D. Correct: In this scenario, you have 10 UNIX servers. All of your clients are experiencing problems contacting the UNIX servers by host name. Although the zone is configured to allow dynamic updates, the UNIX clients probably do not support this feature. Therefore, the UNIX servers must be manually added to the DNS zone database in order for the clients to be able to contact them. The proper resource record to add for each UNIX server is an A (host) resource record. |
