Question : Need help with Syntax -  DnsAvoidRegisterRecords

I have a Windows 2003 Domain controller, which is also a Global Catalogue with 2 network cards and I want to Stop the Automatic creation of (same as parent folder) “A” records by the Netlogon Service (for the second network card only, ip address 10.1.0.5)

so I go to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters

and create the value for

Registry value: DnsAvoidRegisterRecords

Data type: REG_MULTI_SZ

here is where I am unsure of the syntax:

for the value, do I just type the ip address:

10.1.0.5
10.1.0.5

 or do I type:

LdapIpaddress  10.1.0.5
GcIpAddress 10.1.0.5

Thanks,

Mark

Answer : Need help with Syntax -  DnsAvoidRegisterRecords

As I said, I don't think it permits you to define IP addresses, that means making the change will prevent it registering all records associated with the mnemonic.

So this one:

LdapIpAddress

Will prevent it registering the same as parent folder host record for both interfaces.
