Our shop has two Linux-based servers running DNS and DHCP, and that is NOT going to change. They are running BIND 8.2.2 so they support SRV and DDNS, so that is not an issue. We have a class C licence (142.nnn.0.0) and there are four addresses ranges in the DHCP scope (142.nnn.136.0 to 142.nn.139.255). Our primary DNS zone is corp.ca and Windows 2000 will be delegated a new zone called ad.corp.ca which will be an empty W2K Forest Root. Below that will be child domains by location such as Richmond.ad.corp.ca, Ottawa.ad.corp.ca etc. Each of those locations will be running DNS server with AD-Integrated zones.
Two questions: (1) How will DHCP know which DNS server to send dynamic updates to ? I will want member Windows 2000 machine info to come to my DNS server, (for example: wkstn1.Richmond.ad.corp.ca) with an associated DHCP lease. Other DHCP lease info should go to the Linux DNS servers, for non-WIndows 2000 machines (such as wkstn2.corp.ca)
(2) How will Revserse Lookups work,since I don’t have a dedicated TCP/IP sub-zone, but just share portions of those four allocated to the DHCP scope.
Any info you can provide will be appreciated
