Weird dynamic DNS behavior

by fregeus . Updated 15 years, 11 months ago

Hello all and a good day.

Something strange happen at my customer’s site today and I wanted to know if anyone ever experienced this and if so, do you know why it happen.

We have two domains, lets call it domain.com and domain.intra. Domain.com has a sub-domain called xyz.

a week ago I downloaded or exported the list of entries in domain.com. To my surprise, there were a good 50 aliases pointing to non-existing names in sub-domain xyz. This morning, almost all those 50 (about 90% of them) aliases are now pointing to existing names (identical ones) but in domain.intra.

-Everyone swears that no changes were done.
-Both domains are Dynamically updatable

Has anyone ever seen Aliases updated dynamically in windows DNS? Is this something that can be done? It was such a large group of names, can a lack of communication between both domains cause this?

Any ideas, suggestions, appreciated.

Thank you

TCB
