After you apply this hotfix, only network interfaces that have dynamic update registration enabled appear in the Netlogon.dns file. Therefore, you can disable the dynamic update registration of A records on a per-interface basis on a domain controller. (The list of records that Netlogon tries to register is stored in the %SystemRoot%\System32\Config\Netlogon.dns file. This log file lists records that are required to be registered for the domain controller.)
