How do I
install and configure a new Windows 2000
DNS server to prepare for a new AD
Domain?
The Domain
Name System (DNS) is the Active
Directory locator in Windows 2000.
Active Directory clients and client
tools use DNS to locate domain
controllers for administration and
logon. You must have a DNS server
installed and configured for Active
Directory and the associated client
software to function correctly. This
article guides you through the required
DNS configuration.
NetBIOS
name resolution (WINS server, LMHOSTS
file, or NetBIOS broadcast) is still
required for earlier versions of Windows
to resolve network resources on an
Active Directory domain. |
