The A resource record of a Windows 2000 Server that is hosting DNS does NOT have a time stamp if the DNS server registers its name dynamically with itself.
When adding the local A resource record, DNS doesn't include the time stampto prevent the record from being scavenged.
NOTE: This behavior adds increased reliability to the Windows 2000 DNS namespace.
