Hello All,

I am getting errors relating to DNS server sending packets to itself. Event
ID 7062

I have looked and tried all the corresponding KBs but it has not resolved my
problem. I have noticed under the forward lookup zone multiple entries with
the same server name but different serial increment. I am wondering can that
be the culprit?

For example;
under _msdsc>tcp/gc/domains/pdc>_tcp.....I can see multiple entries for SRV
record pointing to the same server
ldap [16][0][389] s1.cricket.com
ldap [0][0][389] s1.cricket.com


Another question is what will happen if I delete these records as far as
effecting the DNS? and which one will I actually be deleting the one with
the higher increment as the other DCs in the environment all have;
[0][0][389] s2.cricket.com
[0][0][389] s3.cricket.com


TIA,
Altria

BTW, windows 2000 server with AD integrated DNS

Read inline please.

These will not cause 7062 events, anyway.
7062 events are caused by broken delegations, or having its own IP in the
Forwaders list, or its own name and IP in the Root Hints list.

Nothing permanent, so long as you restart the Netlogon Service on all DCs.

All records under the _msdcs are registered by the Netlogon service.

Hello Kevin Thanks for you fast reply!

Well I do not have any forwarders configured and as far as the root hints
there are no instances of the server name.

I am not sure how to find broken delegations>>>>I guess that is a google
moment....any advise?

Thanks again,
Altria

Look in all your zones for a folder that is gray in color, when you click on
it, you will see NS records in the right pane. Make sure all servers with NS
records in the delegation have the zone for the name being delegated. It is
also possible, that the server being delegated to has the zone, but it also
has an NS record for this server and the NS record could be cached on this
server.

Example:
This server:
domain.com
subdomain NS secondserver.subdomain.domain.com


Other server:
subdomain.domain.com
(same as parent folder) NS firstserver.domain.com

Now, when first server does lookup to second server for a name like
server.subdomain.domain.com, and the name doesn't exist,
secondserver.subdomain.domain.com may respond with NS records listed in
subdomain.domain.com it will return the NS record for itself then start
sending packets to itself every time it is asked to resolve a name in
subdomain.domain.com.

Hello Kevin,

Thanks for your reply but I am not seeing any folder that is grey in color
listed under my zones?

I am running this DNS on 2000 Advanced server.

Thanks,
Altria

You need to find out exactly what name is causing this message. It is
usually included in the event message. How often is it logged?
You may have to go all through your cache to see if there is an NS record
for this server anywhere in the cache. If you find the NS record for this
server in the cache, or an NS record that resolves to this server IP, then
you've found the culprit.
