Hello,

Can someone give me instructions on how to create a secondary DNS server in Windows 2000 Server? We have one on the network that is also the PDC. I want to create another one for fault-tolerance purposes. Our network runs DHCP and uses the 10.1.1... structure. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help in advance.

I was able to get the forward lookup working, but the reverse lookup does not seem to be working.
I looked at the reverse lookup on the PDC and there was none, so I created it (it did not give me any errors, so I am thinking it was set up correctly). I then retried to create the new reverse lookup zone on the Secondary Server and it created it, but still gives me an error. Any suggestions?
