SBS 2011 Make TXT record visible in DNS

After creating a TXT record in my domain under my domainname.local in an effort to qualify for the dig lookup by GoDaddy, the Dig cannot see the TXT record.   To create TXT record, I right click DomainName.local and select "Other New Records",
choose TXT and name the record DZC and give it the text value as indicated by GoDaddy.  What needs to happen for that record to show up in a DNS lookup?

  • SBS 2011 Domain Accounts Can't Login To Windows 8 PC

    One of our Windows 8.1 machines is no longer allowing domain accounts (except admin) to login to the PC.  This PC was a fresh setup and was joined to the domain in January.  When I log into the PC with the network admin and go to logs I get the
    following message related to group polocies not being able to be applied (now it won't let me connect at all).  I'll upload log files as soon as I can connect again.
    We are running an SBS 2011 server that handles all ad, dns, exchange 2010, remote web access, etc.
    Any ideas on what may be going wrong or how I should troubleshoot the issue?
    Thanks!

    Hi,

    currently I have one exchange organization and I have 4 accepted domains which I want to create txt records for them.all I found is related to office 365 not related to hosted Exchange 2013.
    I need to et this information to provide it to public dns provider

    Hi,
    You can create a TXT record by using DNS Manager on a server running Windows Server 2008 that has the DNS server role installed. Also, you can use the DNSCmd command to create a TXT record.
    For more information, here is an article for your reference:

  • SBS 2011 no longer issues DHCP leases: DHCP, DNS, and AD Errors

    Hi all. On early 8/13/2012 and into the morning, our UPS failed several times. The battery seems to be fine but the unit was shutting off power to the unit which means the (Windows SBS 2011 Standard) server shut off unexpectedly several times.I replaced
    the UPS.
    Now I'm trying to figure out what in the world this did to the server. It seems DHCP, DNS, and AD all have issues, as seen in the logs below. The client PC's are going offline one-by-one because the leases are expiring and it can't connect to the server
    to renew. When trying to start the DHCP service, I get a 20013 error saying it cannot be started.
    So I attempted to follow a kb article and repair the database but that didn't work because it seems the Jetpack utility is not in SBS 2011? And even at that, I'm thinking it may not even be a corrupted DHCP database due to the other errors in the event log.
    This is a small office and I only know enough to be dangerous but usually I can just follow a kb to fix any issues. But there are so many errors, this one has me stumped..   Could any Server whizzes identify the big picture here?

  • PowerShell 3: Add multistring TXT record to DNS

    Hi,
    I have been working on a PS script for Windows 2012 to create DNS records for AirPrint services. I can get SRV, PTR records created fine. I am having a bit of trouble with TXT records though.
    I am using the following command to create a TXT record:
    $TXTData = "line1`r`nline2`r`nline3"
    Add-DnsServerResourceRecord -ZoneName testdomain.internal -
    Name MyNewTXTRecord -Txt -DescriptiveText $TXTData
    This works fine and creates a record with multiple lines in it.
    There are 2 problems. If the length of TXTData is greater than 255 characters then PS won't process the command. I know each string in a TXT record can only be 255 chars long, but there can be multiple strings. The `r`n is creating the multiple strings.
    The second, is that if I run a command to retrieve that same record, I only ever get the contents of the first string. So, the code below only gives me 'line1'. This could be a formatting thing, but I just can't seem to see the rest of the record.
    $record = Get-DNSServerResourceRecord -ZoneName testdomain.internal -Name MyNewTXTRecord
    $record.recorddata
    The big issue is the creation of the records. I'm a bit lost, so any ideas?
    Cheers
    Craig.

    Show output:
    Add-DnsServerResourceRecord
    -ZoneName testdomain.internal
    -Name MyNewTXTRecord
    -Txt -DescriptiveText "a","b","c","d"

  • SBS 2011 stops responding

    Two days in a row now one of my clients has come into the office to find that their SBS2011 is no longer responding to requests, and logon times take between 15 and 30 minutes before reaching a usable desktop. The SBS2011 server is a guest VM on a Windows
    2008 Hyper-V (Core) server. Both days when I connect to console via Hyper-V the server will not respond to a CTRL+ALT+DEL request. Restarting the server resolves the problem, however I cannot really determine a Root Cause. Yesterday, I just rebooted
    the server and everything was fine, and I found a few messages in the application log that suggested that Exchange was having issues processing spam before sending the NETLOGON service in a tailspin, or so I thought.
    Since I noticed the same thing this morning I decided to do a little troubleshooting before Turning Off the VM to restart the server.  I was able to connect to services and to event viewer, but I still don't see anything in the logs other than various
    services reporting that All Domain Controller Servers in use are not responding. There are some Warnings in the System Event Log that indicate the DNS for the domain is failing registrations, but no messages as to the exact cause.

    Any Ideas on where to look for possible causes and how to keep this from happening every night?
    Regards, Jim Majorowicz, MCP Sr. Network Engineer Whitsell Computer Services (503) 297-8440x12 www.whitsell.com We can support you no matter where you are. Ask me for details.

    How are the VM's configured ? I am sure they are up to the standard requirement that suits SBS architecture.
    Make sure SBS has only one NIC enabled with IPv4 and IPv6 active. The issue that you are facing might be due to many reason (DNS + Exchange)
    Also , please note to unmounts any USB from the Server as a Test and boot the server.

  • Migrating from SBS 2011 to Windows Server 2012R2 Standard with 365

    Im looking to move SBS 2011 to Server 2012R2 standard and with a 365 migration as well.
    Im thinking
    BPA for AD (health check)
    Add the Server2012R2 as a DC
    Ensure replication
    Move DHCP
    Change DNS
    Now this is where I get lost, now Im lost to use either dirsync or add essentials service, I have gone for standard and 30 cals with the option  as I have 28 users and the essentials service would make everything quite nice for remote access and backups
    etc....  however I don't know whether to just use dirsync with password replication instead ?
    Currently Im aiming towards getting the dc up and running then enabling essentials on the dc but I dont know how it will effect SBS and having essentials on the same network and sync'ing people to the cloud ? So Should I use DirSync on a different server
    instead to sync up to azure ?
    Finally with 365 I have only ever done a migration involving an export of pst's from an exchange box and then on a new domain with new pc's and reimport the pst's on the user accounts in outlook.
    However I have read when migrating to 365 was using exchange 2010 there was a application
    to move everything across however you needed an ssl cert iirc ? so I dont know how it works now since the nice new dashboard upgrade (assuming the tool has been updated like dirsync)
    along with the above how does AD now know where exahcnge if you use the migration app with an ssl cert and is it a case of still running the 365 config tool to configure each user to look at their mail in the
    cloud ? Also is it a good idea to enable essentials from the start of the 2012r2 dc for replication top 365 or to use dirsync ?
    then finally when replications is all good start transferring the FSMO roles over to the new DC and demote and remove the SBS server
    I have seen (below) but i dont think it covers this scenario and I cant be the only person in this situation =\ ?

    Hi,
    Would you please let us know current situation of this issue? If any update, please feel free to let us know.
    à
    Currently Im aiming towards getting the dc up and running then enabling essentials on the dc but I dont know how it will effect SBS and having essentials on the same network
    and sync'ing people to the cloud?
    I’m a little confused with the description. Did you mean that set up DC (Windows Server 2012 Standard) and
    then install the Windows Server Essentials Experience role? If so, when you migrate, please refer to the article:
    Migrate from Previous Versions to Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials or Windows Server Essentials Experience
    Regarding to migrate Exchange to Office 365, please refer to following articles.
    Migrate
    All Mailboxes to the Cloud with a Cutover Exchange Migration
    Step-By-Step:
    Migrating from Exchange 2007 to Office 365
    Please Note: Since the web site is not hosted by Microsoft, the link may change without notice. Microsoft

    Meanwhile, there is an additional article that you can refer to:
    Manage Office 365 in Windows Server Essentials. It may help us to understand Office 365 in Server Essentials clearly.
    If anything I misunderstand, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
    Hope this helps.

  • A Global Catalog Server could not be located - All GC's are down SBS 2011

    I have been searching through these forums and manage to find similar errors but am struggling to find an answer that applies to this me.
    I seem to be having a number of issues with our SBS. I believe this was originally domain was previously on a SBS 2003 box before being moved to this SBS 2011 box last year, it has been running fine until yesterday. I cant see anything that has changed then
    though.
    Everything seems to point to DNS although I am struggling to pinpoint the actual cause. The most worrying is when I try to open something on the SBS such as AD sites and services.
    the error is

    I found a few people who have had similar issues that was caused by the "netlogon" service being paused or stopped but in my case it is set to automatically start and is running.
    I have also posted this to serverfault  (cant post links yet serverfault.com/questions/522691/a-global-catalog-server-could-not-be-located-all-gcs-are-down) added as there may be info there that may help.
    Thanks for taking the time to read this, hopefully someone out there has come across this before or can offer something in regards to the next steps I should take.

    Some troubleshooting ideas:
    0. Check if the DCs can resolve each other using their DNSHostName. If not, this indicates some DNS misconfiguration
    -- you need to fix that first.
    1. Check if the both the DCs are pointing to the same DNS server (or DNS servers that are replica of each
    other). Run: "ipconfig /all" and check its output. If not, correct the DNS client settings and run dcdiag after sometime.
    2. Check if dynamic updates are "turned on" on the DNS server.
    3. Try re-registering the DCs SRV records by either restarting netlogon service or by running the following
    command: 
         nltest.exe /dsregdns

  • SBS 2011 VM and Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V host. After rebuilding the host image, no email is received, EMC states "You don't have sufficient permissions to view this data" when looking at organization config. Server config not shown on EMC.

    Hyper-V Host Server 2012 R2 x64 drive c:
    All VMs, including SBS 2011 Standard x64 are on drive d:
    I replaced my motherboard and defined a Marvell RAID 1 Mirror for my boot drive C:.  My drive D: containing all of my Hyper V machines remained untouched since the new MB had Intel Matrix Controller with RAID 5, as did the old MB.
    Since the C: drives are a few bytes smaller after configured as a RAID 1, I was unable to restore drive C from the image copy, so I rebuilt a new Hyper-V Host identical as possible using Server 2012 R2 x64.  I had to redefine the Hyper-V machines on
    the host, and the 1st time I brought it all (host and VMs) I had to reconfigure the NICs due to new MAC addresses, and verifying SBS 2011 DNS and DHCP for all physical and Hyper-V machines. Otherwise my Hyper-V SBS 2011 x(64) wasn't touched.
    Now the SBS Exchange 2010 is not receiving mail.  In the Exchange Management Console clicking on the Organization config gives me a highlighted error "You don't have sufficient permissions to view this data".  The Server
    Config is no longer on the EMC.  The Recipient Config looks fine.
    Outlook 2013 x64 connects to the Exchange Server, but no new mail appeared.  There were just a few older messages that came in since the last time I opened Outlook.  My public DNS on GoDaddy was not changed.  I did not change sending mail
    through my ISP Sonic.net.  The SBS internal DNS doesn't have an MX record, but I'm not sure it ever did since my GoDaddy public DNS has an MX record.
    I tried restoring to an earlier Image Copy, but that made no difference.  I'm using the Windows Backup from SBS 2011 for my daily image copy backups.

  • SBS 2011 - Need to change Machine name and IP address range

    We had upgraded to SBS 2011 and new hardware 6 months ago, we have recently been aquired by a larger company and want us to comply with their machine naming conventions and change the IP address range to fit in with their corporate structure.  They
    will be supplying us with a 2011/2012 Domain controller, this is to be added to our existing network as the primary DC supplying DNS, DHCP, WSUS
    We use our SBS box for DNS, DHCP, Exchange, File server, Print server
    How difficult is this going to be?  Is it actually possible, or do we need to wipe the SBS box and install from scratch?Any help on this matter would be appreciated

    As said, you can't change the name of the server or the domain, but you can change the IP addresses.
    The bad news is that you can't integrate SBS to a larger corporate network. SBS needs to be at the root domain of the forest and hold all FSMO roles, and it can't have any trusts.
    If the corporate wants to bring in a DC of their own AD domain and wants all clients to be joined to that domain, you just can't use SBS anymore, it won't fit in. You need to inform your corporate IT about the situation, and you need to make a new plan.
    You will need some kind of migration from SBS to standard products first before you can join to the corporate network structure.

  • Sudden Server Infrastructure Licensing errors SBS 2011 Standard install (10 months old)

    The following errors began about a month ago and I can't figure out how to fix it.  I especially don't like that it states the server will be shut down in 22 days.  When I rebooted the server last week the problem went away for exactly 24 hours
    then came back and seems to report every 4 hours.
    Background:
    Fresh SBS 2011 install last Dec. 7th (2012).
    We did have an SBS 2003 server but it was never on the same network.  We simply backed up the data off of its data drive.  Exchange was backed up via OST to PST conversion then imported in.  Only 10 - 12 users.
    HP ProLiant server and the SBS 2011 DVDs were OEM supplied by HP but we installed NOT pre-installed.

  • How do I create a TXT record?

    I'm trying to figure out how to create a TXT record on OS X Server 4's DNS server.  Specifically for the Caching service's multiple public IP address requirements.  I'm, of course, using OS X Server's DNS implementation, but see no definitive method for creating TXT records.  I see there is a Text field for most record types, but usage is confusing at best.  Why would Apple choose not to implement TXT records, when this is a requirement of functionality for other supported services?  Not to mention, a good DNS implementation needs to have TXT record support.  Achieving this is trivial on Linux/Unix or Windows, but I can't even find reference to the BIND configuration file for Server 4, and it is no longer in the /var/named/ directory.
    Also, if anyone can point me to any documentation covering these services in detail, that would also be appreciated.
      -- Mike

    Thanks for the reply,
    I actually found the "named" directory just before reading this, and was able to edit the respective zone file, like a standard BIND configuration file.  I understand that Server.app will create a TXT record using the inheritance of the A record label, when using the Text field of the new A record dialog box.  However, this will not suffice if you need to create a TXT record starting with an underscore (_), as is required by Apple's own Caching service, when using different public IPs for clients.  Go ahead and try to make a TXT record entry for "_aaplcache._tcp", with the Server.app GUI and let me know how it goes...I'll answer that for you; "Not well, Mike."  This could likely function correctly if Apple implemented RFC 2181, in Server.app's GUI.  This expands the character set allowed for DNS names, stating that any binary string may be utilized for DNS labels.  Luckily, Apple implements BIND correctly, and serves the TXT entry when queried.  It also appears to leave the zone file intact when modifying other entries with the GUI.  The Server.app GUI does not parse the manually created TXT record however, and thus must be modified and maintained by hand.

  • Feeble internet connection SBS 2011 ADSL & optic fiber backup

    I have two internet connections, one with ADSL, a cisco router and an IPCOP firewall and second with optic fiber and a watchguard firewall. It is either one or the other as I’m testing my internet connection. All this attached to a switch
    with an SBS 2011. My problem is that my internet connection with either setup is feeble. When I try to reach google, I sometimes get errors and I constantly loose connection on Skype. When I’m RWW it randomly loses the connection without changing IP. I would
    like to test my network without a variable: SBS 2011. As you know if the server is down nobody can get out and nobody will get in. So for testing purposes what would you recommend that I do in order to shut down the server and test my internet connection?
    Even posting this was a problem. Cheers.
    Mikelo Sanchez

    Hi:
    SBS relies on DNS for RWA, Internet Access and such.  Try this:  Connect one of the routers, preferable the faster one, to the switch, remove the other, and go back through the console wizards to verify you have input the correct entries as
    provided by the ISP for that connection.  Note that the ONLY reference to DNS anywhere in your network should be the IP of the SBS, and the SBS should have either the DNS of your ISP (or other known good DNS servers) as forwarders OR root hints as the
    lookup for DNS from the SBS DNS server. You can verify this by start - admin tools -dns - rclick server name - forwarders tab.
    For RWA from the outside the necessary ingredients are a stable connection and proper public DNS settings.  For SBS we normally see an A record at the public DNS host for "remote.your-domain-name.tld" pointing to the external public static IP address
    assigned by your ISP to the external interface of your router/firewall.
    If all the settings are as described and it is still flakey you may be cursed with unreliable internet service and nothing you can do will overcome that.

  • DMZ setup for SBS 2011

    Any suggestions on a low end router capable of providing a decent firewall that would begin to meet the security requirements needed for a DMZ setup?  (example Cisco PIX 506 Firewall) 
    And whether it can be done with just a couple of wireless routers, one with an enabled DMZ?   My initial thought on this is that the standard consumer wireless routers have an eight character password which is far from secure enough to do
    much of anything. (brainstorm details below)
    Thought is to place a web form login page in the DMZ... add a read only file to test the web form access.  Nothing fancy and for now, it does nothing except verify that user can login or is denied login.   Verified login goes nowhere except
    "Success".  Build something later when the first part works (if it works).
    Plan is to exist over two lans (or IP sets within the domain - one set is 192.168.01.xxx and the other set is 192.168.02.xxx) and set up bypass rules between the two.  The Lan 192.168.01.xxx would house the DMZ (with HTTP port 80 access) and the
    Lan 192.168.02.xxx would house the internal domain (SBS 2011 DC running VPN, Sharepoint etc, HyperV server with virtuals running SQL and TFS, and laptop access).  The 192.168.01.xxx is a guest lan for non-domain (non-hostile) members.
    So my questions: 
    1) Can the HTTP header be forwarded from SBS 2011 router rules on the router firewall to hit the second lan (http requests from 192.168.02.xxx would be routed over to 192.168.01.xxx)?
    2) Can an inexpensive router like the PIX ($30 used) above solve the "crack the eight character router password issue?"  (Maybe I just need a newer router in general where the passwords are more secure?)
    Currently RWW open, SSL open, VPN (1723) open, 25 open... all other ports closed.  [Does this create any snafu's?]

    While all this is good information, I would clarify one point
    Port 80 should not be open and port forwarded as it's the single most commonly attacked port
    Users should be taught to come in via port 443, using https

    news:[email protected]...
    Hi,
    I have deployed similar setups for clients. The main thing is the quality of the router/firewall facing the internet. I assume when you talk about open ports, you mean open via NAT (network address translation) otherwise, you are leaving the firewall to
    do the hard work. I am a fan of Draytek 2830 adsl routers. They also have cable routers if you connect via cable. These are much more expensive than $30 - about £230 in the UK. Cheaper models by other manufacturers are available, but what you should look for
    is a fully customisable NAT server (also called virtual server on some cheaper models) Have a look at Zyxel and TP-Link professional routers. Passwords with these routers can be as complex as you need.
    I assume you have a static IP address or block of static IP addresses for your public wan address. Using dynamic DNS will create problems with spam filters if you are using an Exchange/smtp server on your SBS server to send email and is not recommended.
    SBS needs to be able to access your server via ports 25, 80, 443 and 987. You may also want to use 1726 if you need a VPN connection. Use NAT to map these ports from WAN to LAN. for example if your WAN address is XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX and your LAN subnet
    is 192.168.1.0 with your SNS server IP address set to 192.168.1.1 and your router IP is 192.168.1.254, then you would add the following to the NAT address table:
    WAN XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX port 25 to LAN 192.168.1.1 port 25
    WAN XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX port 80 to LAN 192.168.1.1 port 80
    WAN XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX port 443 to LAN 192.168.1.1 port 43
    WAN XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX port 987 to LAN 192.168.1.1 port 987
    This will provide secure access to these ports from WAN to LAN and will enable SBS remote web access, SBS Exchange Email and Outlook Web Access. Computers connecting will require either a third party domain certificate (eg from Verisign or
    GoDaddy etc) or the self issued certificate (found in the public document folder on the SBS server) to be distributed to machines to enable them to use this remote access.
    For the non secure subnet, you will need another router connected to a LAN port on your main router. Configure the WAN address of the secondary router to be 192.168.1.253 and the LAN  subnet to be anything suitable but different from your primary
    LAN, eg 192.168.2.0. On your main router, set the WAN IP address of your secondary router (192.168.1.253) on the DMZ. This opens the WAN port of the secondary router to the internet but isolates it from your primary LAN subnet.
    This setup is suitable for a secure network with public wifi access via the secondary router. Use the secondary router to restrict bandwidth, download types adult content etc. to prevent public abuse of your Wifi network, but still making it suitble
    for smatphones to connect.
    I hope this is clear, but if you have any questions, post again.
    regards,
    Linda

  • SBS Update Services not running because it automatically turns off... SBS 2011, WSUS 3.0 SP 2

    I apparently don't have the "normal" problems here because I have tried all the usual fixes for this and nothing has worked. I really hope someone else has an idea for me. I have dozens of hours into this now and it probably would have been faster to P2V
    this box then start from complete scratch with a fresh install, new domain, create new users, then copy over mail for users.
    I can view & deploy updates from the SBS console, but I still get the error when attempting to view (change the software update settings).
    Fixes I have tried (in order of attempt IIRC):
    Checked all GP settings and "real" WSUS console settings/options probably half a dozen times.
    "Repair windows server update services" technet article.
    Server cleanup wizard and reindex database
    Complete WSUS uninstall and reinstall (don't remember the source but followed directions to make sure WSUS was COMPLETELY gone before reboot, reinstall, reboot again).
    KB2720211 (fully broke WSUS)
    KB2734608 (got me back to pre-KB2720211 functionality)
    I figured KB945985 was a long-shot and after viewing the output log I had high hopes but no dice.
    Output log from KB945985:
    Changed database context to 'SUSDB'.
    Using SUSDB

    Service pack is inserted to approval for detection classification
    I also uninstalled WSUS from an old database server on our domain thinking that may have been a problem (used to be DC, but that was two DC's ago).
    I have not fully rebooted the server since the KB945985 script or the uninstallation of WSUS from the old old demoted DC, but I have restarted the SBS Console, SBS Manager service, and the Update Services service on the SBS 2011 server.
    -Linksep

    The error is the title of the thread.
    We have Server1, Server2, Server3.
    Server1 is 2003 Standard. It used to be the DC many years ago but it was demoted now it sits idle as a VM on Server2. (Server1 holds an old database/program that gets accessed a couple times a year). I removed WSUS from this server. Something that never
    got done when it was demoted from DC...
    Server2 is 2008 Standard. It is a BDC and holds a database that gets used frequently, but only by maybe 3 users. Does not have WSUS installed.
    Server3 is SBS 2011 Standard. This was a migration from server2, and I believe a bad one at that. Migration was before I started working here. Sharepoint isn't used, but everything else is. This is the server with the broken WSUS.
    Yes, 945985 is for 2003, but I found 945985 as a solution to someone's problem with SBS 2008 so even though I thought it was a longshot I still did it because desperate times call for desperate measures.
    I printed out the directions and checked off each step with a pen as I performed it. I don't think I missed any steps. (Not to say it's IMPOSSIBLE, but it is highly unlikely.)
