    DNS Not resolving properly

    Micronmega, thanks for the advice. It looks like that *might* have done the trick, nslookup is working now. Web pages are still loading a little slow, but I'll give it a day and see if it improves in a bit, maybe do a /flushdns. Good tip, should have thought of that one. Looks like the...

    DNS Not resolving properly

    Hello, One of my servers DNS does not seem to be functioning properly. I first noticed it when some users started complaining about slow loading of websites they visited (msn.com, cnn.com, etc). The server is a Single DC for 20+ workstations. I have DHCP and DNS enabled. The servers DNS is...

    Active Directory not working properly

    jvierra, I have all of those under "domainname.local" EXCEPT _domain. There is however a domain folder under _msdcs. Each folder contains at least 1 or 2 SRV records. Thanks, Justin

    Active Directory not working properly

    jviverra, Rebooting had no effect, I'll give disabling/re-enabling DNS registration a shot tonight. As for right now, unfortunately as far as the problem goes, were still at sqare one, however I have leared a bit more about DNS than I did before so its not all bad. Reguarding your last...

    Active Directory not working properly

    Ok I checked: 1. "Append Primary and connection Specific suffixes in DNS" (must be selectd) 2. "Register this connection's address in DNS." ( must be checked ). and they both are currently "checked". I'll have to disable/re-enable the connecton tomorrow as I...

    Active Directory not working properly

    Hey jvierra, so to test your theory, I need to 1. Disable update of DNS settings on the network card of clackserv (how do I do this, is this the same thing as "register this connections address in DNS"?) 2. Remove IPSec by going into TCP/IP options under advanced settings for the...

    Active Directory not working properly

    Siddarth, Thanks for your advice on DNS, yes it seems I have a bit to learn. I set my forward zone to allow dynamic updates: Yes (previously:only secure updates) and have removed my service providers name space so only clackserv is listed under the name servers. Reboot, still getting those...

    Active Directory not working properly

    Expanding the zone under the DNS snap-in, I dont see the 4 domains. There are only 2 DCs, clackserv and clackserv2. and about 20 workstations on the network. The second DC (clackserv2) is pointing to this one (clackserv) for DNS and this one onle. All the workstations are only pointing at...

    Active Directory not working properly

    "Describe to us your entire DNS infrastructure, where everyone points for prefered and secondary (and tertiary, etc) and we should have this straightened out in a jiffy." Hi Siddharth, thanks for following up. Lets see, CLACKSERV is the DNS server for the dmain. Every other host on...

    Active Directory not working properly

    Wow, well if rebooting it doesnt fix my problem, I'll uninstall the current driver as well. Its a Brother HL-1440. I am actually running 2000 server, not 2003. I dont currently have 2003 installed on any of my servers. I'll have to see if i can get them off of the beta disk I have. I'll...

    Active Directory not working properly

    Active Directory not working properly

    Hey Siddharth, just wondering if you have any more tips for me to fix this situation? One thing I was thinking to try that might be a little extreme is to hook another server up to the domain, set it to take over the domain fucntions, remove AD from the original server, then reinstate AD on...

    Active Directory not working properly

    Hi svsawkar, I'm not entirely sure on what you mean with your instructions... As far as your question about nothing opening, that is not entirely correct, only the security policies will not open, but any new GPs I make will not apply, I can open DHCP, DNS, etc, and they open. DNS is working...
