I need to enable DNS debug logging on all my DNS servers.  All but one are Windows 2008 R2 (the other is Windows 2003.)

Active Directory (AD) is a Microsoft brand for identity-related capabilities. In the on-premises world, Windows Server AD provides a set of identity capabilities and services, and is hugely popular (88% of Fortune 1000 and 95% of enterprises use AD).
