Hi all,

I have two W2k DC's, one has DNS with AD intergrated zones, the other DC has no DNS. I would like to add a DNS server for redundancy. What is the best way to accomplish this?
 
If the zones are AD integrated and AD replication is working between the two DCs, all you need to do is install the DNS service on the second DC.

AD integrated zones are stored in the active directory database and replicated to all DCs in a 2000 Active Directory. So the zone data is already on the second DC, you just need to install the service.
