Try running this script and see if it helps. Save as a .bat file and run in a privileged (Administrator) command prompt.

We recently set up a new Server 2008 R2 domain, and are having a weird issue. When joining the domain, I can't join a machine by typing "domain.com" for the domain. It only "finds" the domain if I type "domain" and join that way. When logging in as well, the logon screen shows "domain\username"...

Hi Linney, thanks for posting. No, it's not related to DNS changer (unfortunately).
I did end up tracking the issue down. It appears we had an old Linux server still acting as NetBIOS master and was passing out old/bad data to clients. Additionally, the TCP/IP Helper for NetBIOS service was...
I'm having a strange DNS issue on a lot of our client Windows 7 workstations that I've narrowed down to the following:
When the DNSCache (DNS Client) service is running:
- Clients cannot resolve four particular hostnames
- Clearing the DNS cache (ipconfig /flushdns) and then pinging the hosts...
I've been tearing my hair out trying to figure out why my virtually unchanged image was failing on deployment. It kept tossing error code 0x80070070 along with a message about failing to copy the administrator profile to the default profile.
In our case it turned out to be a relatively simple...
Hi there,
I'm having an odd issue with my dhcpd.conf file on a Fedora Core 13 system. The server is at a remote site and my desire is for it to only give IP addresses to reserved clients (by MAC address). The problem is that it is still passing IP's out to unknown clients. I'm sure it's a...
Thank-you Cisconooblet.
We'll have a 'green' network and a 'blue' network which access the mail server in the DMZ. I understand Green and Blue will be able to initiate connections to the server and the ASA will allow the return traffic.
Our Domain Controller and samba file server is residing...
I have an ASA 5510 with a WAN connection to the outside world.
Currently it looks like this:
[Internet]
|
[ASA]
|
192.168.x subnet
|
[NAT device]
|
172.16.x subnet
My plan is to move both subnets to their own interface on the ASA and remove the second NAT device.

It will prompt for the login password, unfortunately. If you want to embed your password IN the batch file (bad practice!!) you could use CPAU.exe. You'll have to google it, but it lets you run things as another user and save the password in the script.
You could do something complicated like have it trigger the batch file when a certain file changes. Or just schedule a service restart every 5 minutes? :-/
Here's a batch file we use for staring an Elevated command-prompt as another user. Since our regular user accounts are separate from our Administrator accounts (best practice) it's a pain to get Vista to do a "run as another user" on a command-prompt AND do it as an administrator.
Create a...
Ceil32,
I Googled around a bit, and found this for the Windows Update / automatic updates error:
You may also try SFC (system filechecker) to see if any Windows system files are corrupted.
sfc /scannow
or
sfc /? for a list of options
Hi dbustamante, glad the script is working for you!
I googled around a bit and the only thing I found was this:
