  1. Aberdeen Angus says:

    C, On DC2, create a forwarder. A delegation for child.contoso.com also needs to be created on DC1, but it’s the forwarder which allows DC2 to resolve names in contoso.com.

    1. Aberdeen Angus says:

      Can’t believe I said that, what a dummy I am. Forwarder + delegation is the most common way of doing it but the question says DC2 needs to be authoritative, so the answer is correct, replicate contoso.com to all the DCs in the forest.
