DNS

On each PC, go to CMD and type ncpa.cpl.

Go to Propreties, IPv4 and choose an IPv4 address.

For the primary zone, we choose 192.168.42.1 (Mask: 255.255.255.224 + Gateway: 192.168.42.30)

Preferred DNS server: 192.168.42.1, the second is for the secondary zone 192.168.42.2.

Primary Zone

Machine name: SRV164170

1.

• In DNS Manager, right click on Forward Lookup Zones > New zone… > Primary zone
  • Choose a name for the zone, here: ducobu.lan
• Right click on Reverse Lookup Zones > New zone… > Primary zone
  • Select Primary zone > IPv4 > Network ID 192.168.42

2.

• In the new primary zone, create a new host: srv164170; IP address: 192.168.42.1
• For the Lookup zone as well as the Reverse:
  • Go to SOA, Primary server > Browse and select the new host.
  • Go to Name Servers > Edit > FQDN: srv164170.ducobu.lan. and IP address: 192.168.42.1
    ↳ OK (normal to have an error 😜)

To verify if everything is correct: CMD:

C:\Users\Administrator> nslookup
Default Server:  srv164170.ducobu.lan
Address:  192.168.42.1

> exit
C:\Users\Administrator>

3.

If we want to create an alias (www) pointing on the principal server:

• In the new primary zone, New alias (CNAME)
• Name: www, FQDN: srv164170.ducobu.lan.

Secondary Zone

Machine name: SRV164171

1.

On SRV164170

• We create a new host: srv164171; IP address: 192.168.42.2
• For the Lookup zone as well as the Reverse:
  • Go to Name Servers > Edit > FQDN: srv164171.ducobu.lan. and IP address: 192.168.42.2
    ↳ OK (normal to have an error 😜)

2.

On SRV164171

• In DNS Manager, right click on Forward Lookup Zones > New zone… > Secondary zone
  • Zone name: ducobu.lan; IP address of the primary zone 192.168.42.1
• Right click on Reverse Lookup Zones > New zone… > Secondary zone
  • Select Primary zone > IPv4 > Network ID 192.168.42

In order to properly synchronize everything:

• On srv164170, right click on the name srv164170 > All tasks > Restart
• Likewise on srv164171
  • If you can't have access, refresh the two zones (Lookup et Reverse). First, on the primary server, then on the secondary server.

To verify if everything is correct: CMD:

C:\Users\Administrator>nslookup
Default Server:  srv164170.ducobu.lan
Address:  192.168.42.1

> www.ducobu.lan
Server:  srv164170.ducobu.lan
Address:  192.168.42.1

Name:    srv164170.ducobu.lan
Address:  192.168.42.1
Aliases:  www.ducobu.lan

> exit
C:\Users\Administrator>

3.

Now that everythong is correct,we can verify, on the secondary server, if the zone transfertis functionnal:

C:\Users\Administrator>nslookup 192.168.42.1
Server:  srv164170.ducobu.lan
Address:  192.168.42.1

Name:    srv164170.ducobu.lan
Address:  192.168.42.1


C:\Users\Administrator>

If it's okay, we can perform the zone transfert:

C:\Users\Administrator>nslookup
Default Server:  srv164170.ducobu.lan
Address:  192.168.42.1

> ls -d ducobu.lan
[srv164170.ducobu.lan]
 ducobu.lan.                    SOA    srv164170.ducobu.lan hostmaster. (7 900 600 86400 3600)
 ducobu.lan.                    NS     srv164170.ducobu.lan
 ducobu.lan.                    NS     srv164171.ducobu.lan
 srv164170                      A      192.168.42.1
 srv164171                      A      192.168.42.2
 www                            CNAME  srv164170.ducobu.lan
 ducobu.lan.                    SOA    srv164170.ducobu.lan hostmaster. (7 900 600 86400 3600)
> exit
C:\Users\Administrator>

To do the same with the GUI, just do a right click on the ducobu.lan zone of the secondary server > Transfert from Master.

Delegation zone

1.

We have to create a new primary zone on the secondary server (only in the Forward Lookup Zones).

We'll call it delegation.ducobu.lan.

We create a new host: srv164170 & IP Address: 192.168.42.1

Inside the Properties window:

• Name Servers > FQDN: srv164170.ducobu.lan. & IP Address: 192.168.42.1

Now we have to create a new alias:

We call it www and the FQDN is srv164171.delegation.ducobu.lan.

2.

On the primary server, we have to create a New delagation > Name: delegation

Secondary server name: srv164171.ducobu.lan

We can now verify if the delagation works. To do so, open the CMD on the primary server:

C:\Users\Administrator>nslookup
Default Server:  srv164170.ducobu.lan
Address:  192.168.42.1

> www.delegation.ducobu.lan
Server:  srv164170.ducobu.lan
Address:  192.168.42.1

Non-authoritative answer:
Non-authoritative answer:
Name:    www.delegation.ducobu.lan
