Hate to say it, but "if you have to ask...." perhaps this is a bad idea. The
short answer is, you need two DNS servers on an isolated network. In fact, I
don't see why you'd want to use Windows for it anyway.
If I were you, I'd leave this role on servers in a datacenter with redundant
everything. I wouldn't stay with Verizon, though - I'd find someone else. I
personally like DynDNS (their CustomDNS service is nice).

Re: Moving DC/Exchange to new Site

Hello,
You may wait for AD replication before changing ip address. the KCC runs
every 15 minutes, that sould be ok.
By the way, Exchange on DC is BAD.

Hi Andy,
Why do you want to connect the Exchange server with two NIC, what is it
that you want to archive?
Anyway, it will work, but I have to configure the T-1 to be the primary NIC.

I have 10 offices throughout my network and about 20 remote users. The remote
users will be using the email only portion of exchange. 9 of the 10 offices
will be connecting through the T-1 for the public folders, messaging, email
etc...i want the 10th office where the exchange server will be located to use
the exchange features through the LAN, not through the T-1.

Re: Shutdown and Startup of Multiple Servers?

You can write scripts using resource kit shutdown tool. Then there are a lot
of tools out there you can use, plus some professional tools that can
coordinate your restarts.
However - I have kept a practive of avoiding this and fixing any root causes
that require reboots.
Can I ask why you are rebooting so frequently? Normally, servers do not need
any rebooting if they are built, sized correctly and protected
appropriately.

Re: Windows 2003 Server hangs at splash screen / acpitabl.dat afte
Date:
09/29/2007
15:30:01
We resolved the issue. turns out that the HP-supplied driver for the embedded
RAID controller ws not compatible with MS Win2k3 SP2 when detecting and
handling a disk error. When I installed a parallel win2k3 on the system
using the most recent SATA RAID driver, the system came up and reported the
hitherto unknown disk error (bad blocks). After I replaced the original
driver with the updated driver in the original Win2k3 installation, the
server booted into the original installation and I confirmed the disk errors
in the event viewer. I found a thread elswhere that reported a
problem with
the RTM-level HP Embedded SATA RAID driver. So, when I noted that the current
RAID driver at HP was a later date than the one we had originally installed,
i concluded it was worth a try. Side note: The mirror-drive was
defective
to the point where we could not write to the partition in console recovery.
Ultimately, the mirror-drive had to be reformatted and resynch'ed.
