| Hi Michael,
I did some work on decoding the DNSRecord property too back then (not enough
real work to do it seems and it made a few colleagues sigh at me rather a
lot).
I'm still shamefully stuck on at least two of the fields (depending on field
length), but everything else seems to fit rather nicely. I only bothered
mapping the more common record types (I consider those to be A, CNAME, MX,
NS, SOA, SRV and TXT).
I think it is perhaps worth noting that the first two bytes are not the
record type, they're the full length of the portion of the attribute which
holds the record data. For the most part that won't make a blind bit of
difference to your script, you'd have to run into a TXT record with 3
characters in it to notice a discrepancy (I'd have to check that too,
educated guess).
The record type is represented by the 3rd and 4th bytes, as a little endian.
The values match up to the those published here:
http://www.iana.org/assignments/dns-parameters
I tested that theory for all record types which can be created in the GUI
and found no discrepancies.
With the maps it is possible to construct records directly rather than using
WMI, GUI etc (it's possible to switch between record types as well if that
was really desirable). The fields I cannot decipher appear to be trivial and
seem to have very predictable values but since they never change I can't
figure out what they mean, I can apply a bit of meaning, but it's nothing
more than a guess.
I'll publish the maps if you're interested, just need to tidy them little
first

Subject: [ActiveDir] Dumping Active Directory Integrated domains
A month or two ago, someone asked about dumping ADI domains.
I wrote a script at that point, but didn't post it. So, I just now put it up
on my blog in case anyone is still interested. It's in PowerShell (duh).
Totaling 453 lines. Although nothing would prevent it from being done in
VBScript or anything else that can read AD.
I suspect it would take fewer lines in C/C++/C# and more in VBScript. J
(Note that I wasn't trying to minimize lines, but to emphasize readability
and comprehension. I'm sure I could reduce the line-count by at least
one-third to one-half in PowerShell too.)

| I have a habit of putting up a secondary DNS server somawhere else in the
network on a regular member server (sometimes dhcp server) that would pull
in the zoneinfo for all the zones using standard DNS replication (primary to
secondary master). The zone info gets stored in a local file on the
secondary
Get the file with the backup tool of your choosing.
You can actually reverse this process to do a restore, but for the ACLs I
think you need a systemstate from a DC anyway...

script, incorporating your parsing corrections and adding more record types.

Thats how we are backing up the adi zones & other zones in our side
anyway... any difference?
