You have a server named Server1 that runs Windows Server 2012.
You promote Server1 to a domain controller.
You need to view the service location (SRV) records that Server1 registers in DNS.
What should you do on Server1?
A.
Open the Netlogon.dns file.
B.
Run ipconfig /displaydns.
C.
Run Get-DnsServerDiagnostics.
D.
Open the Srv.sys file.
Explanation:
Netlogon.dns – If you are using non-Microsoft DNS servers to support Active Directory, you
can verify SRV locator resource records by viewing Netlogon.dns. Netlogon.dns is located in
the %systemroot%\System32\Config folder. You can use a text editor, such as Microsoft
Notepad, to view this file.
The first record in the file is the domain controller’s Lightweight Directory Access Protocol
(LDAP) SRV record.
Incorrect answers:
A: Server1 has been promoted to a domain controller and if you want to view the SRV
records then you should open the NetLogon.dns files.
C: Server1’s SRV records can only be viewed via the NetLogon.dns file.
D: The Server1 SRV records should be viewed via the NetLogon.dns file.
