Pop Connector – DNS Issue

by westcoastpc . Updated 19 years, 8 months ago

I have a server (SBS 2000) Named abc.com not, local but .com. When 2000 server first came out, that was the way. Not .local, my issues is I setup a pop connector in Exchange, works great. The mail server’s name is mail.abc.com. So when the POP connectors kicks off it looks to local DNS for the resolution and sees that the SOA is on the local network and look to the local network. Can?t find it, because it is not local. So I create a mail record for mail.abc.com in the local DNS. Problem solved. Well not really, that IP can and will changed at some point. Is there a way to have the pop connect use and outside DNS server? If I change the server?s DNS to point outside, AD goes crazy….

Thanks!!
