Keeping your active directory DNS zones backed up.
 
Keeping your DNS zones backed up is an important part of running any type of DNS service. Since MintDNS requires AD integrated zones the steps below should be used to make regular zone backups.

(Use the DNSCMD.EXE This will backup your zone to System32/DNS)
Code:
dnscmd /ZoneExport yourdomain.com yourdomain.com.bak


You can also create a copy of the zone file for an Active Directory-integrated zone by changing the zone type to Standard Primary, which creates the relevant .dns file. Copy the .dns file, and then change the zone back to Active Directory-integrated.
