Hello.

I am getting events 40961 (below) every hour.
This happens on S06 (which is mentioned in event). This machine has W2K3
and hosts internal DNS server. Domain Controller (W2K3) is on the other
machine. No forwarders are specified, Secure cache against pollution is
enabled, ipconfig /all below.
824217 and 823712 are irrelevant.


What could be the cause and how do I solve the problem?
Thanks a lot.

Thanks a lot.
This
"If this warning appears by itself on an hourly basis, check that the
credentials assigned to the DHCP server to register DNS dynamic updates are
valid. Spelling errors or incorrect passwords and/or domain names can be to
blame. To do this in Windows Server 2003, open the DHCP snap-in, open the
properties for your DHCP server, select the "Advanced" tab, and click the
"Credentials" button. Verify the username, password, and domain listed here
are valid."
seems to apply - Username and domain are empty. What should be there?

Hi Kirill,

I'd create a service account with the right to update and write dns-records for
the specific zone(s).

I haven't been able to verify this, but I believe the following rights will be
sufficient for a AD-Integrated DNS (note that the rights will have to be set in
Active Directory, the example below is for a AD integrated DNS-Zone which will
be replicated to all AD-DCs which are DNS-Servers in a WS2k3 AD):

On the Zoneobject (e.g.
DC=nwtraders.msft,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,DC=nwtraders,DC=msft) for
itself:
Create dnsNode Objects
Delete dnsNode Objects
for dnsNode-Childobjects:
Write all Properties

Using dsacls out of the supporttools you are able to set those rights as shown
(but get rid of the line-break):

dsacls DC=nwtraders.msft,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,
DC=nwtraders,DC=msft /G nwtraders\mmuster:CCDC;dnsNode;

dsacls DC=nwtraders.msft,CN=MicrosoftDNS,DC=DomainDnsZones,
DC=nwtraders,DC=msft /G nwtraders\mmuster:wp;;dnsNode /I:S

If that's to complicated or for testing purposes you can use a account with
DNS-Admin rights).

HTH - Feedback aprechiated.

Just to add, from what I've seen in previous postings about this, just the
mere fact of creating a reverse zone and make sure there is a PTR for the
DCs should eliminate this.

Ace, Ulf,
seems that restart of NETLOGON have stopped those events.

Thanks a lot.
