    Hi,

    Thanks for posting here.

    Regarding of your issue, the conditional forwarder is required. The conditional forwarder allows you to specify a specific DNS server for clients trying to resolve hosts in a specific domain.

    I have done a test in my environment and here is the result for your reference.

    My environment info:
    DC1/DNS server hosted zone: sunny.com
    DC3/DNS server hosted zone: test.com
    Win10 client joined domain sunny.com
    Our goal: Win 10 client needs to resolve a A record in DC3

    I configured a Conditional Forwarder on DC1 as below

    And now, test.com can be resolved on Win 10 client

    For more details regarding conditional forwarder, please kindly refer to the following article:

    And I also found an article and video regarding of how to configure Conditional Forwarder on Windows server as below for your reference:
