I have one win2k server which is a Domain controller, It is running perfectly. However, I am having a problem adding another server.
When I run the active directory (DCPROMO) wizard, I select to add "additional Domain Controller for an existing domain."
Then it asks for a username / password and enter domain of network account you wish to us for this operation. I enter the domain administrator and password. I get a response back saying:
The wizard cannot gain access to the list of domains in the forest. This condition may be caused by a DNS lookup problem. For more the specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted.
Users can see the shares I set up on this new server, but don't have permissions to access the shares. When I go to the permissions, it only gives me the option to add local accounts, not domain accounts to the shares.
I'm new to Active Directory, and not sure how to apply domain accounts to this server. I'm assuming setting it up as an additional domain controller should take care of this, but how do I go about this? Your feedback would be appreciated.
