One point I need to correct, my client i am trying to add is actually a =
rare
WinXP system we have here.
As an update I found dcdiag.exe and netdiag.exe which helped me diagnoze =
the state of my
DNS service. When I ran netdiag I noticed:
LDAP test. . . . . . . . . . . . . : Passed
[WARNING] Failed to query SPN registration on DC =
'ntserver1.office.snowshore
.com'.
[WARNING] Failed to query SPN registration on DC =
'ntserver2.office.snowshore
.com'.
[WARNING] Failed to query SPN registration on DC =
'zoe.office.snowshore.com'.
I then tried adding my machine to "office.snowshore.com" instead of =
"SNOWSHORE"
and that worked. Not sure why. I have always added to "SNOWSHORE" =
which is the
name of the original NT 4.0 domain which we upgraded from. =
"office.snowshore.com"
is the DNS domain that all of "SNOWSHORE" resides in. Why would this =
be?
Thanks,
Ed
P.S. Why are there so many "=3D" signs in my postings????

Subject: [win2kforum] Adding computer to W2K domain - master browser
issue too.
Hi folks,
I have just received an error when trying to add a W2K Prof. client =3D
system
to my domain. The error is:
"A domain controller for the domain snowshore could not be =3D
contacted."
Clicking help in the error box says:
" The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.snowshore
Common causes of this error include the following:
=3D20
- The DNS SRV record is not registered in DNS.
- One or more of the following zones do not include delegation to =
=3D
it's child zone.
snowshore
. (the root zone)"
I have a simple single-site domain. One domain called SNOWSHORE. I =3D
have three AD servers.
I DO see some DNS errors in my Event Viewer on my AD master:
Source: DNS
Event ID 4004
The DNS server was unable to complete directory service=3D20
enumeration of zone office.snowshore.com. =3D20
This DNS server is configured to use information obtained from=3D20
Active Directory for this zone and is unable to load the zone=3D20
without it. Check that the Active Directory is functioning =
properly=3D20
and repeat enumeration of the zone.=3D20
The event data contains the error.=3D20
I get one of these for each of my DNS zones. =3D20
I have recently experienced 2 spontaneous reboots of the AD master =3D
including
a reboot just minutes ago. As the system was about to reboot I got a =
=3D
message=3D20
that said that the reboot was initiated by the "lsass" process.
About 2 weeks back, I did install 2 additional NIC cards so that I could
connect the machine to other physical networks so that I handle NIS =3D
clients
from those networks (using SFU on this machine too). I do not think =3D
this
has caused my problem but I am mentioning it as a curiosity.The reboots =
=3D
have
only happened 2 days ago and just this morning. =3D20
Any thoughts or words of advice I would appreciate. I would welcome a =
=3D
way to=3D20
sanity check DNS and also a way to resolve the master browser hopping =
=3D
issue.
Seems as though my Master Browser keeps hoppping between machines. How =
=3D
do I
make that stay with my AD servers?
