DNS not getting update from DHCP clients

Asked by bbdumbo in Windows 2003 Server, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Domain Name Service (DNS)

Hi
encounter the following problem, pls kindly help.

All of the clients inside DHCP cannot be found in the DNS.

The DHCP server properties is set to "Always dynamically update DNS A and PTR records" and "Discard A and PTR records when lease is deleted".

The DHCP scope properties is also set to  "Always dynamically update DNS A and PTR records" and "Discard A and PTR records when lease is deleted". The lease duration is 3 days. The scope option have 003 Router, 006 DNS Servers and 015 DNS Domain Name.

The DNS server properties is set to enable automatic scavenging of stale records at 7 days.

The DNS zone properties is set to allow secure only dynamic updates. The aging/scavenging is set to 2 days no refresh and 3 days refresh interval.

At the client PC, the TCP/IP of the network properties is set to automatic and default setting.

In the client PC, when i ping the client hostname, it is able to resolve. But when i tried nslookup get the following error:
C:\>nslookup
*** Can't find server name for address 10.x.x.x: Non-existent domain
*** Can't find server name for address 10.x.x.x: Non-existent domain
*** Default servers are not available
Default Server:  UnKnown
Address:  10.x.x.x

I tried to ping the DNS server hostname in the client pc, able to resolve.

I've also tried the following:
C:\>ipconfig /flushdns
Windows IP Configuration
Successfully flushed the DNS Resolver Cache.

C:\>ipconfig /registerdns
Windows IP Configuration
Registration of the DNS resource records for all adapters of this computer has b
een initiated. Any errors will be reported in the Event Viewer in 15 minutes..

but there is nothing on the event viewer.

Although at the client PC, I'm able to ping its own hostname and resolve the IP. When I tried at other PC, it is not able to. Also there is no such entry at the DNS.

May I know what can be wrong? Please kindly advise. Thanks alot.
