I dont understand whats the question here.
But what i can say about the resolv.conf settings if you have multiple dc's.
You have to think in 2 DNS resolving settings.
1) on the server as client resolving ( resolv.conf )
2) clients resolving ( DNS Services )
The difference explained.
If i do : ping hostname this is a server which is doing a client dns request
through resolve.conf
If i do : dig A hostname @DNSSERVER this is a server which is doing a client
resolving request through dns services. ( port 53 )
In case of 2 DCs.
Before the join of second DC, point the resolv.conf to DC1.
After the join of the second DC, and after the reboot of the server, this
changes a bit.
Change resolve.conf to
Nameserver IP_OF_DC2 ( NOT LOCALHOST ) !
Nameserver IP_OF_DC1
(optional add a internet DNS server, if both DC's fail you server can still
use the internet )
DC1 should now have
Nameserver IP_OF_DC1 ( NOT LOCALHOST ) !
Nameserver IP_OF_DC2
(optional add a internet DNS server, if both DC's fail you server can still
use the internet )
A 3 DC setup.
Same as the 2 DC setup, but add the third to it.
A 4+ DC setup.
Here i preffer the following, the DC with FSMO roles in this example is DC1.
DC1 resolv.conf DC1 first, then what you want.
DC2 resolv.conf
DC2
DC3
DC4
DC3 resolv.conf
DC3
DC4
DC2
DC4 resolv.conf
DC4
DC2
DC3
Etc etc
And i advice this also in resolv.conf if you run multiple dc.s
# resolv.conf its timeout is 5 sec by default, to long imo.
options timeout:2
# round-robin selection of name servers from among those listed
rotate
Why no localhost in the resolv.conf, that can give problem with kerberos things.
Localhost =! Hostname
