Titolo: Domanda per DNS WIN NT4.0

Salve siccome avrei intenzione di ricreare una macchina che fa' da pdc in un
dominio NT e che fa' da DNS e da mail server vorrei sapere se esiste un modo
per esportare tutte le impostazioni del data base del dns e poi importarle
sulla nuova installazione di WIndows NT
Grazie

This article discusses the steps involved when moving the zone files 
from one
Windows NT 4.0 Domain Name Service (DNS) server to another Windows NT 
4.0 DNS
server.
 
MORE INFORMATION
================
 
When you use the Microsoft DNS server, you have the option of starting 
the
service using a boot file or using information that is stored in the 
registry.
Use the appropriate section below:
 
Starting DNS Using a Boot File
------------------------------
 
When you use a boot file to start your DNS server, follow these steps to 
move
your zone file(s) from one Windows NT DNS server to another Windows NT 
DNS
server:
 
NOTE: The following steps assume that you have installed the Microsoft 
DNS server
service on the new Windows NT-based server and have not configured any
information for it.
 
1. From Services in Control Panel, stop the Microsoft DNS server on both 
Windows
  NT DNS servers.
 
2. Manually copy the entire contents (subfolders included) of the
  %Systemroot%\System32\DNS folder from the source server to the 
destination
  server.
 
3. Restart the Microsoft DNS server on the new Windows NT DNS server.
 
Starting DNS Using the Registry
-------------------------------
 
When you are moving a single zone file, follow these steps:
 
1. From Services in Control Panel, stop the Microsoft DNS server on both 
Windows
  NT DNS servers.
 
2. From the source DNS server, copy the desired zone file <zone 
name>.dns
  from the following folder:
 
      %Systemroot%\System32\DNS
 
   to the same folder on the destination Windows NT DNS server.
 
3. Create the new zone on the destination server using the DNS Service 
Manager.
  Configure the zone as it was configured on the source server, either 
as a
  Primary or Secondary zone. The new zone must be created using the same 
zone
  file name as the original file.
 
   For example, if Sample.com.dns was the original file copied from the 
source
  server to the destination server, Sample.com.dns must be the name of 
the new
  file.
 
4. Restart the Microsoft DNS Server on the new Windows NT DNS server.
 
When you are moving multiple zone files, follow these steps:
 
WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious, system-
wide
problems that may require you to reinstall Windows NT to correct them. 
Microsoft
cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the use of Registry 
Editor can
be solved. Use this tool at your own risk.
 
Perform steps 1 and 2 on the destination Windows NT DNS server only:
 
1. Using the DNS Manager create a sample primary zone, Sample.com. 
Creating the
  sample zone ensures that the DNS server boot file information has been
  written to the registry and the DNS server knows where the cache 
information
  is located.
 
2. Using DNS Manager, delete the sample zone that you created in step 1.
 
3. From Services in Control Panel, stop the Microsoft DNS server on both 
Windows
  NT DNS servers.
 
4. From the source DNS server, copy the desired zone file <zone 
name>.dns
  from the following folder:
 
      %Systemroot%\System32\DNS
 
   to the same folder on the destination Windows NT DNS.
 
   Perform steps 5 through 8 on the source server only:
 
5. Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
 
6. Go to the following subkey:
 
      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\DNS
 
7. Click Zones, click Registry, and click Save Key.
 
8. Save this key to a location from where you can restore it to the 
destination
  server and close Registry Editor.
 
   Perform steps 9 through 14 on the destination server only:
 
9. Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
 
10. Go to the following subkey:
 
       HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\DNS
 
11. Click Zones to verify that it is selected, click Registry, and click
  Restore.
 
12. Locate the registry key file that you exported in step 8.
 
13. Click Yes to the confirmation dialog and close Registry Editor.
 
14. Restart the Microsoft DNS Server on the new NT DNS server.
 
NOTE: The information transferred in the registry key maintains the 
names of the
zones and keeps you from re-creating the zone names in the DNS Manager 
for every
zone file that was copied.
