Hi Bryan,

However, I have been trying to verify this myself. I used DNSMGR.DLL (the Admin snap-in via Start->Administrative Tools->DNS "DNS Manager") and captured MS-DNSP traffic.

[...] Quering a Win2k8R2 server for DNS records via LDAP, it looks like the DNS_RPC_NAME structure is 2-byte-aligned [...]" When I do LDAP queries (via LDAPDE or "Active Directory Users and Computers"), I'm not seeing any MS_DNSP traffic.

I'm not producing MS-DNSP traffic. I'm trying to decode the LDAP
datastructures related to the DNS service. These seem to be encoded
following the MS-DNSP document, so I used that for my implementation.
I see I made a typo in my last email, I'm seeing the parse error on the
SOA record, not the SRV record. The attached record blob was extracted
from a win2k8r2 server, and the second DNS_RPC_NAME only decodes
correctly if I make sure the first DNS_RPC_NAME is 2-byte-aligned.
I've also attached an LDIF file, on record 7, the 6th DNS_RECORD is the
record in question.
All in all my question is more about the LDAP storage of
MS-DNSP-related data, rather than the protocol itself. If there's a
better description of the DNS data stored in LDAP than MS-DNSP, what
document would that be?
Cheers,
Kai
