Question : Stale DNS records do not automatically delete

Hi,

I have a DHCP/DNS server.  In the DNS console I have found very old  A records.  I have the "delete this record when it becomes stale" box ticked.  I also have "dynamic DNS updates.." on the DHCP console ticked.  How do I make them automatically delete?
Also can you please tell me why I have records called "(same as parent folder)"?

Thanks for your help

Anthony

Answer : Stale DNS records do not automatically delete

You have to enable scavenging on the server properties and then set scavenging properties on the zone itself.  See this link.  It should help you.
