Hi -



Under one of our forward lookup zones (AD-integrated), we have the usual
folders (_msdcs, _sites, _tcp, _udp, DomainDnsZones, ForestDnsZones) as well
as a single folder just named: "1" (without the quotes). There is a single
A-record under it for one of our printers.



Any idea what this folder is?



Thanks.

Hello nme,



quite easy - create a new host with the name "test.1" in your domains zone
and it'll be created under the same folder.



Those folders you see underneath the zone (and Zones are all on the top
level, right after "Forward Lookup Zones" and "Reverse Lookup Zones") do not
really exist, in DNS only the records exist within a zone and the
dns-managementconsole makes those folders up to navigate easily. The
"folders" are displayed with every segment distinguished by a "."
(dot/point).



So for example there's a record

_ldap._tcp.Default-First-Site-Name._sites.example.com IN SRV yadda-yadda



Which is displayed in dnsmgmt.msc underneath



Example.com

|

+- _sites

| |

| +- Default-First-Site-Name

| | |

| | +- _tcp



However, if you look in the Active Directory Container which holds the zone
(or in the file if DNS is not AD-integrated) you will neither see
subcontainers or objects with the names _tcp... or
Default-First-Site-Name... or _sites... - they are just made up because
there's a single (or multiple records) which have those names between dots.



So in your case - if the record was created manually, you might just
recreate it without a .1 at the end (test this and verify the printers
name), if it was registered automatically you need to change the name of the
printer.

Gruesse - Sincerely,

Ulf B. Simon-Weidner

That's what I would expect. But since the original poster called it a "zone" I figured I'd ask. What are you doing up so late? :)On 1/24/07,

Just 9:30 pm here, so
not really late.

Many are mixing up the zones with the “DNS-Subdomains” or
whatever they are actually called. But in this case he even had it right, he said
that under the domain zone he has the “_*”-folders as well as a folder “1”. I
had to reread too ;-)

How are things? See you in March?

Thanks, all. Ulf, you explanation was
great! I am sure it was someone (probably me!) just typed a .1 in some setting
on the printer and allowed it to register in DNS.

A Hostname underneath
a folder “1”? I’d agree if just the number would be there, but not with a name
(<> other number) underneath.

You can register records like this by messing up a reverse lookup
