<br />
Ensure that Allow Dynamic Updates is set to Secure Updates only. And that your DHCP is allowed to update DNS.<br />
<br />
How do .local and .org fit together?<br />
<br />
DHCP will try and register entries using the Primary DNS Suffix. If that's set to .org and you only have a .local zone then there's nowhere for it to register the entries.

We have a win2k server in a nt domain running dhcp and dns<br />
The dhcp server is configured to auto update client information<br />
The dns zone is set to .local will the domain we are joined to is .org<br />
when I run the ipconfig /registerdns command the registration never actually takes place and there are no events in my evt viewer<br />

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
