A. This is caused if your server thinks it is the root server in the domain, and will hence have a "." zone. To enable the forwarder you need to delete this zone from your server:
- Start the DNS Management MMC snap-in (Start - Programs - Administrative Tools - DNS Management)
- Expand the server, expand Forward Lookup Zones and select "."
- Right click and select Delete
- Click Yes to the confirmation
- Stop and Start the DNS manager and the tabs are available
This can also be done from the command line using:
C:\> <b>dnscmd /ZoneDelete . /DsDel</b>
The /DsDel is required if the zone is Active Directory integrated
