I've just installed w2k, ran dcpromo, and installed dns.
When I do an nslookup for 192.168.0.5 it replies with Server unknown. When I run dcdiag, everything is passing, until it hits systemlog. An error occured. EventID:0x80000003E, time today, Event String could not be retrieve MMCServer failed test systemlog.
Wehn running Enterprice tests on: westchester.thecomputergal.net tests are passing. I'm I doing something wrong in my naming conventions is AD and DNS:
Thanks,
Michele

Does your DC, that has DNS, and that you are running nslookup on have its static TCPIP settings for DNS pointing to itself?
