Our 2000 domain has two DNS servers.
In server1's TCP/IP settings, server1 is listed as the primary DNS server, and server2 is listed as the secondary server.
Server2 lists server2 as it's primary, and server1 as the secondary.
I'm not talking forwarding (although that is enabled), and server2 has a secondary zone for the domain. The zone is an active directory enabled zone.
One of our staff says a DNS server should ONLY list itself in its TCP/IP settings, while most of us say the way things are is correct for failover conditions.
Does anyone have any documented info saying one or the other configuration is correct ?
TIA
