ADMT TcpipClientSupport issue

I am in the process of trying to start moving my AD accounts to my new domain using ADMT 3.1 but when I do a user migration I get the following error in the error log.

2009-12-08 14:55:32 ERR2:7435 SID History cannot be updated for admigtest. This operation requires the TcpipClientSupport registry key to be set on "source domain". Changes to the TcpipClientSupport registry key require a restart to take effect. rc=6.
2009-12-08 14:55:32 WRN1:7392 SIDHistory could not be updated due to a configuration or permissions problem.  The Active Directory Migration Tool will not attempt to migrate the remaining objects.

I have checked on my source domain to ensure that the TcpipClientSupport value has been created and set correctly. Searching Microsoft and Google I have found that this issue can be related to DNS. I am going from AD 2000 to AD DS 2008r2. A trust has been configured correctly between the domains and are able to talk to each other. DNS in both domains are AD integrated. Are there any tools or recommendations on what to try? I know the basics of DNS but don’t know what to look for in DNS to ensure my DNS is correctly configured.

Answer

How have you integrated the DNS for the two domains? Typically, I’d add a selective forwarder on the DNS server closest to the edge of the network in each AD forest for the opposite domain name, set to forward to a DNS server hosted by a DC in the other domain.
