Could you give more details about the steps to do that?

Right-click on the zone and see if you have an option to delegate... Or look at zone properties.<br />
You would still have to go through either DNS management, or use powershell cmdlets ....<br />
<br />
I think the suggestion re custom Mmc deals with having one with predefined consoles, <br />
Open mmc,<br />
File add/remove snap-ins<br />
Add DNS management, add the other mmcs of interest to you<br />
Then save the custom console ..

I don't think there is a way to do granular access... I have to admit what Arnold said at the beginning:-)

Give user write access to a specific dns zone (Not active directory integrated) in Windows 2012

This topic area includes legacy versions of Windows prior to Windows 2000: Windows 3/3.1, Windows 95 and Windows 98, plus any other Windows-related versions including Windows Mobile.

The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical, globally distributed system responsible for associating the name of a computer, service or other resource into an IP address for connecting to the Internet or a private network. Most prominently, it translates domain names to the numerical IP addresses needed for the purpose of computer services and devices worldwide.

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). This topic includes all things Active Directory including DNS, Group Policy, DFS, troubleshooting, ADFS, and all other topics under the Microsoft AD and identity umbrella.
