Register PTR records
Specifies if DNS client computers will register PTR resource records. By default DNS clients configured to perform dynamic DNS registration will attempt to register PTR resource record only if they successfully registered the corresponding A resource record. If you enable this policy setting registration of PTR records will be determined by the option that you choose under Register PTR records. To use this policy setting click Enabled and then select one of the following options from the drop-down list:Do not register: Computers will not attempt to register PTR resource records. Register: Computers will attempt to register PTR resource records even if registration of the corresponding A records was not successful. Register only if A record registration succeeds: Computers will attempt to register PTR resource records only if registration of the corresponding A records was successful. If you disable this policy setting or if you do not configure this policy setting computers will use locally configured settings.
Register DNS records with connection-specific DNS suffix
Specifies if a computer performing dynamic DNS registration will register A and PTR resource records with a concatenation of its computer name and a connection-specific DNS suffix in addition to registering these records with a concatenation of its computer name and the primary DNS suffix. By default a DNS client performing dynamic DNS registration registers A and PTR resource records with a concatenation of its computer name and the primary DNS suffix. For example a computer name of mycomputer and a primary DNS suffix of microsoft. com will be registered as: mycomputer. microsoft. com. If you enable this policy setting a computer will register A and PTR resource records with its connection-specific DNS suffix in addition to the primary DNS suffix. This applies to all network connections used by computers that receive this policy setting. For example with a computer name of mycomputer a primary DNS suffix of microsoft. com and a connection specific DNS suffix of VPNconnection a computer will register A and PTR resource records for mycomputer. VPNconnection and mycomputer. microsoft. com when this policy setting is enabled. Important: This policy setting is ignored on a DNS client computer if dynamic DNS registration is disabled. If you disable this policy setting or if you do not configure this policy setting a DNS client computer will not register any A and PTR resource records using a connection-specific DNS suffix.
Primary DNS suffix
Specifies the primary DNS suffix used by computers in DNS name registration and DNS name resolution. To use this policy setting click Enabled and enter the entire primary DNS suffix you want to assign. For example: microsoft. com. Important: In order for changes to this policy setting to be applied on computers that receive it you must restart Windows. If you enable this policy setting it supersedes the primary DNS suffix configured in the DNS Suffix and NetBIOS Computer Name dialog box using the System control panel. You can use this policy setting to prevent users including local administrators from changing the primary DNS suffix. If you disable this policy setting or if you do not configure this policy setting each computer uses its local primary DNS suffix which is usually the DNS name of Active Directory domain to which it is joined.
DNS servers
Defines the DNS servers to which a computer sends queries when it attempts to resolve names. This policy setting supersedes the list of DNS servers configured locally and those configured using DHCP. To use this policy setting click Enabled and then enter a space-delimited list of IP addresses in the available field. To use this policy setting you must enter at least one IP address. If you enable this policy setting the list of DNS servers is applied to all network connections used by computers that receive this policy setting. If you disable this policy setting or if you do not configure this policy setting computers will use the local or DHCP supplied list of DNS servers if configured.
Connection-specific DNS suffix
Specifies a connection-specific DNS suffix. This policy setting supersedes local connection-specific DNS suffixes and those configured using DHCP. To use this policy setting click Enabled and then enter a string value representing the DNS suffix. If you enable this policy setting the DNS suffix that you enter will be applied to all network connections used by computers that receive this policy setting. If you disable this policy setting or if you do not configure this policy setting computers will use the local or DHCP supplied connection specific DNS suffix if configured.
Allow Distributed Link Tracking clients to use domain resources
Specifies that Distributed Link Tracking clients in this domain may use the Distributed Link Tracking (DLT) server which runs on domain controllers. The DLT client enables programs to track linked files that are moved within an NTFS volume to another NTFS volume on the same computer or to an NTFS volume on another computer. The DLT client can more reliably track links when allowed to use the DLT server. This policy should not be set unless the DLT server is running on all domain controllers in the domain.
Apply policy to removable media
This policy setting extends the disk quota policies in this folder to NTFS file system volumes on removable media. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting the disk quota policies established in this folder apply to fixed-media NTFS volumes only. Note: When this policy setting is applied the computer will apply the disk quota to both fixed and removable media.
Log event when quota warning level is exceeded
This policy setting determines whether the system records an event in the Application log when users reach their disk quota warning level on a volume. If you enable this policy setting the system records an event. If you disable this policy setting no event is recorded. When you enable or disable this policy setting the system disables the corresponding “Log event when a user exceeds their warning level” option on the Quota tab so that administrators cannot change logging while a policy setting is in effect. If you do not configure this policy setting no event is recorded but administrators can use the Quota tab option to change the logging setting. This policy setting does not affect the Quota Entries window on the Quota tab. Even without the logged event users can detect that they have reached their warning level because their status in the Quota Entries window changes. Note: To find the logging option in My Computer right-click the name of an NTFS file system volume click Properties and then click the Quota tab.
Log event when quota limit is exceeded
This policy setting determines whether the system records an event in the local Application log when users reach their disk quota limit on a volume and prevents users from changing the logging setting. If you enable this policy setting the system records an event when the user reaches their limit. If you disable this policy setting no event is recorded. Also when you enable or disable this policy setting the system disables the “Log event when a user exceeds their quota limit” option on the Quota tab so administrators cannot change the setting while a setting is in effect. If you do not configure this policy setting no events are recorded but administrators can use the Quota tab option to change the setting. This policy setting is independent of the enforcement policy settings for disk quotas. As a result you can direct the system to log an event regardless of whether or not you choose to enforce the disk quota limit. Also this policy setting does not affect the Quota Entries window on the Quota tab. Even without the logged event users can detect that they have reached their limit because their status in the Quota Entries window changes. Note: To find the logging option in My Computer right-click the name of an NTFS file system volume click Properties and then click the Quota tab.
Specify default quota limit and warning level
This policy setting specifies the default disk quota limit and warning level for new users of the volume. This policy setting determines how much disk space can be used by each user on each of the NTFS file system volumes on a computer. It also specifies the warning level the point at which the user’s status in the Quota Entries window changes to indicate that the user is approaching the disk quota limit. This setting overrides new users’ settings for the disk quota limit and warning level on their volumes and it disables the corresponding options in the “Select the default quota limit for new users of this volume” section on the Quota tab. This policy setting applies to all new users as soon as they write to the volume. It does not affect disk quota limits for current users or affect customized limits and warning levels set for particular users (on the Quota tab in Volume Properties). If you disable or do not configure this policy setting the disk space available to users is not limited. The disk quota management feature uses the physical space on each volume as its quota limit and warning level. When you select a limit remember that the same limit applies to all users on all volumes regardless of actual volume size. Be sure to set the limit and warning level so that it is reasonable for the range of volumes in the group. This policy setting is effective only when disk quota management is enabled on the volume. Also if disk quotas are not enforced users can exceed the quota limit you set. When users reach the quota limit their status in the Quota Entries window changes but users can continue to write to the volume.
