Virtual PC and ipconfig /registerdns issue ?

Hi everybody!

I'm studying on 70-291 MS Press self paced training kit book (v.1) and
practicing with MS Virtual PC.
In the last few days I've gone mad trying to get that "ipconfig
/registerdns" working between a DNS Client and a Server (each of them win
2003 ).
The problem was resolved only after decided to change the setting of the
client from the "obtain an IP address automatically" (requested by that
MSPress practice) to a static address.
Obviously I had previously set an "alternate configuration" with a valid IP
address in the same subnet of the DNS SRV and the correct DNS SRV IP.
The client was configured with the primary dns suffix of the same zone of
the DNS and the "register this connection's addresses to DNS" was checked
(as it is by default).

The fact is that it worked only by setting up a dhcp on the DNS server or
setting up
the static ip address in the client computer.

Is this problem due to MS Virtual PC limitations or something I've been
missing/misconfigured.

Thank for any reply!
Bye

MD
