DNS Mid Server Parameters

I'm trying to resolve an issue where many of our WIndows Servers are not being fully discovered. The DNS Domain field does not get populated on many of the servers, and this appears to be because they report into domain name servers from a different domain.

Looking around, I found these DNS Parameters that appear to let you define alternate name servers.   I gathered the IP Addresses of the appropriate name servers, validated using nslookup from the mid server that they would work, and set the parameters.   After multiple tests though, still getting 'unresolved' for all IP's in these other domains.   Any ideas?

Solved my own one.   Had done comma seperated IP Addresses for the alternate DNS Servers, swithched to using semi-colons, and it worked.   Would be nice if the docs site defined that requirement...

Hi, 

How do we test the output of the Mid server Parameters? Any pointers, please.
