Ran DCPromo without properly setting up DNS, now I cannot get the DNS entries right on the DC. Is there a way to resolve this without having to start over? The SRV entries that are automatically created normally are missing and I have tried all the listed fixes on MS and still have problems. Ideas?

Regards,
H

I did allow dynamic dns but the problem initially started because our DNS servers were on a Unix box and 2003 was appending the ip of the unix box. I had to make sure that DNS was pointing to 127.0.0.1 in tcp/ip and that resolved the problem during the setup. Note: if you dcpromo a box with it set to look at DNS somewhere else it will not put in all of the correct entries.

Thanks for your help!
