Dear Kurt,
Thank you for your reply.
I understand that you will try the steps soon.
Please take your time and let me know the result at your earliest
convenience.
In answer to your questions, if internal_domain.local cannot be found,
let's just skip it. It is normal.
Regarding the aliases, please delete all of them.
I am sorry for not explaining clearly.
If anything is unclear, please don't hesitate to let me know and I will be
glad to help.
Best regards,
Manfred Zhuang(MSFT)

|
| Also - quick question about solution 2.
|
| under internal_domain.local -> System -> MicrosoftDNS
|
| I have 2 folders. There is no internal_domain.local file or folder. The
| folders are
|
| 1. 16.168.192.in-addr.arpa
| 2. RootDNSServers
|
| The first folder is a fragment of our domain IP in reverse. Is that the
| internal_domain.local file I need to delete?
|
| And in _msdcs.internal_domain.local there are 2 aliases. Do I delete both?
|
| Thanks,
| Kurt
