I am trying to set up globalnames zone to work on Windows 2008R2. A domain mydomain.dir contains just two DCs and no other servers.
I created it as described in http://technet.microsoft.com/en-ca/library/cc731744.aspx
I also read the following http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverNIS/thread/8953820a-3f2f-4929-9a3e-2b0731b80e04 and http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverNIS/thread/8953820a-3f2f-4929-9a3e-2b0731b80e04/
I ran the dnscmd servername /config /enableglobalnamessupport 1 on the server
I checked that EnableGlobalNamesSupport is set to 1 in the registry.
I restarted DNS service.
I created a GlobalNames forward-lookup zone - Active Directory integrated, primary, replicate to all DNS in the forest (I also tried to all DNS in domain), no dynamic updates.
I created a zone singlelabel.dir on the same server and added an A record to it for SRV1.
I created a CNAME record in the GlobalNames zone to SRV1 pointing to SRV1.singlelabel.dir.
I am trying resolution from the DNS server itself.
I can resolve SRV1.singlelabel.dir and SRV1.globalnames, but I cannot resolve SRV1.
What did I do wrong?
