Description Stefan Metzmacher 2026-08-26 10:35:10 UTC 
In a default provision the _msdcs zone doesn't have any dNSProperty values,
which means dnsserver_db_do_reset_dword() will just return WERR_INTERNAL_DB_ERROR.

However it should be possible that new properties are added,
currently it's only possible to replace existing properties.
