Do you have issues ? If yes, could youtell us more about these possible issues ? Thanks, Yann Brian Desmond a écrit: The schools of thought I know on scavenging are – never use it, just leave it on, or turn it on periodically for a short while and then turn it off. Personally I usually just leave it on. Your reverse lookup zones should include whatever subnets the DNS servers are authoritative for. If your DCs are the DNS for your organization, then I would have zones that host all of the subnets you have across your organization. Obviously this can be difficult to do, but the easy way out of just creating a zone for 10.0.0.0/8 and letting the subdomains be created automatically is fine. If you’re only authoritative for certain subnets then it wouldn’t be worth defining any other ones on the boxes.

Or maybe the better question, when should you not enable DNS scavenging? The second part of my question is whether or not AD Reverse Lookup Zones should include all AD IP subnets?
