asked on
DNS cannot find a primary authoritative DNS
This is a SBS 2003 server which has worked okay for about 3 years with some problems. I'm now trying to fixe the DNS error. the netdiag.txt
I'm not sure where to start.
Thanks for your help.

Yes this server is the only one in the domain being the DC and holding all fismo roles.
Both the simple query and the recursive query passed the test.
Both the simple query and the recursive query passed the test.
Have a look if the servername exists in forward and reverse Zones only once. Perhabs you should activate the cleanup routines of the server.
You can also try the command ipconfig /registerdns on the server.

What are the cleanup routines of the server?
I tried ipconfig /registerdns which failed see event below.
i tried 'nltest.exe /dsregdns' and it completed successfully.
Event Type: Warning
Event Source: NETLOGON

Time: 4:24:19 PM
User: N/A
Computer: SERVERN
Description:
Dynamic registration or deletion of one or more DNS records associated with DNS domain 'ForestDnsZones.cleavers.l ocal.' failed. These records are used by other computers to locate this server as a domain controller (if the specified domain is an Active Directory domain) or as an LDAP server (if the specified domain is an application partition).
Possible causes of failure include:
- TCP/IP properties of the network connections of this computer contain wrong IP address(es) of the preferred and alternate DNS servers
- Specified preferred and alternate DNS servers are not running
- DNS server(s) primary for the records to be registered is not running
- Preferred or alternate DNS servers are configured with wrong root hints
- Parent DNS zone contains incorrect delegation to the child zone authoritative for the DNS records that failed registration
USER ACTION
Fix possible misconfiguration(s) specified above and initiate registration or deletion of the DNS records by running 'nltest.exe /dsregdns' from the command prompt or by restarting Net Logon service. Nltest.exe is available in the Microsoft Windows Server Resource Kit CD.

What are the cleanup routines of the server?
-> Right Click on the Forward Lookup Zone and choose properties, there is a button und the select box for dynamic updates, in german it's "Alterung", there you can define a cleanup of old DNS Entries.
Check the following things:
- NIC(s) of the Server have to use the IP Adress of the DNS Server
- Any wrong delegation inside the properties of the DNS Server
Also check the _msdcs Zone, perhabs this helps:

where do I find the _msdsc entries. ?
What do I look for with the DC being registered in the DNS zone?
The permissions appear to be okay allowing the domain administrator full access.

I found it - the forward lookup zone wasn't created with the exact name of the active directory.
Deleted it and recreated the forward lookup zone and followed the directions of the following site.

as suggested by abt-it. Thanks heaps - it's all working.

My lack of understand made this hard to follow. As I learned what was happening it all suddenly fell into place. It's now easy to delete the forward lookup zone and recreate it, after some great help.
Is your server a DNS server for itself?
Could you please go to DNS server mmc and select properties of your server, go to Monitoring tab, select and perform both test - write results here.
