Adding DNS Record for Solaris 10 Client with Windows Server DHCP-D

Hi,

We have a Windows Server (I think 2003) and it leases an IP via DHCP to a
Solaris 10 client OK. I also configured the Solaris 10 client to request a
specific host name and this requested name shows up properly in the Windows
Server DHCP log. However, the client host name is not being registered in the
Windows DNS. To help diagnose, I tried to do a manual registration to the DNS
from the Solaris 10 client using "nsupdate". nsupdate reported "REFUSED".

Is there something we need to do on the Windows Server side to allow the
UNIX client to be registered in the DNS?

Thank You

Hi!

I've posted this earlier in dns newsgroup:

Do you have AD integrated zone and dynamic updates set to "Secure Only"?
This setting would allow only domain members to register themselves in DNS.
