Answer 1

Hello,

This script mays works but I mean it needs an external module (ADDnsPartition).
I found a script to solve my issue.

Answer 2

Are you trying to fix inconsistent permissions so dynamic DNS updates are allowed to be made by the computer account?

Here's one: Resolve-DdnsRecordPermissionProblem.ps1

Answer 3

Hello,

additional clarifying question would be if you are trying to remove from the DNS lists some current computer owner so you see the sid info as the current owner? And you like to replace it to computer_name.

Import-Module D:\Powershell\DNS\DnsShell
Import-Module ActiveDirectory
Add-PSSnapin Quest.ActiveRoles.ADManagement

Retrieve records

$servers = get-content D:\Powershell\Scripts\DNSRECORDS.txt
$newarray = @()
foreach ($computer in $servers) {
Get-ADDnsPartition | Get-ADDnsRecord | Where-Object {$.Name -eq $Computer} | % {
$RecordName = $.Name
$RecordName = "GTLAW\$RecordName" + '$'
$RecordDN = (Get-ADObject –Identity $.ObjectGUID).DistinguishedName
$Owner = (Get-Acl -Path "ActiveDirectory:://RootDSE/$RecordDN").Owner
If ($Owner -eq "$RecordName") {
Write-Host 'Good |' $.Name '|' $Owner
} Else {
Write-Host 'Bad |' $.Name '|' $RecordName $Owner
$AdACL = get-ACL ("AD:\" + $RecordDN)
$ADobject = New-Object System.Security.Principal.NTAccount($.NAME + "$")
$sid = $ADobject.Translate([System.Security.Principal.SecurityIdentifier])
$AdACL.SetOwner($sid)
set-acl -path ("AD:\" + $RecordDN) -AclObject $AdACL
}
}
}
