Explanation:
Tokens are used to shorten and speed up the execution of program files. For example, the @ symbol can be used in place of the domain name. Improper use of tokens generally creates syntax errors in the database file. When a text line is commented out, any tokens it contains must be enclosed in quotes, or DNS server will attempt to use them.
User Action:
Check the specified file for improper use of the token: 1. In Windows 2000 Explorer, go to the Systemroot\System32\Dns directory. 2. Double-click the specified file, and select Notepad to open it. 3. Edit the specified line to correct the use of the token. 4. Save and close the database file. 5. Stop and restart the DNS server service.
