: Hi All
:
: I re-built a domain and transplanted the dns from another server on
: another site. I did it following the MS procedure but it don't seem
: to have worked. Some workstations joined fine but an XP laptop can't
: join and gets the error:
:
: The domain name SYD might be a NetBIOS domain name. If this is the
: case, verify that the domain name is properly registered with WINS.
:
: If you are certain that the name is not a NetBIOS domain name, then
: the following information can help you troubleshoot your DNS
: configuration.
:
: The following error occurred when DNS was queried for the service
: location (SRV) resource record used to locate a domain controller for
: domain SYD:
:
: The error was: "DNS name does not exist."
: (error code 0x0000232B RCODE_NAME_ERROR)
:
: The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.SYD
:
: Common causes of this error include the following:
:
: - The DNS SRV record is not registered in DNS.
:
: - One or more of the following zones do not include delegation to its
: child zone:
:
: SYD
: . (the root zone)

:
: OK so it looks like my DNS isn't pointing to the only DC which is
: syd-dc1.syd.local
:
: The other issue is we have a win2k pro box that runs as a printserver.
: It joined to the domain fine but even if you run to the box logged
: into the domain as admin on another box it asks for authentication.
:
: You can ping by friendly name eg. printserver and it works. So it
: looks like its the DC registration in the dns that's fried.
:
: How the heck do I fix this? Can you manually edit SRV records - if so
: how?
:
:
: Hmm I've looked up the DNS log on the DC and its also giving me:
:
: Event 414
: The DNS server machine currently has no DNS domain name. Its DNS name
: is a single label hostname with no domain (example: "host" rather
: than "host.microsoft.com").
:
: Which is weird cause under the network identification tab the machine
: is showing as: syd-dc1.syd.local with a domain of syd.local
:
: Also get:
:
: event id 4001
: The DNS server was unable to open zone 30.168.192.in-addr.arpa in the
: Active Directory. This DNS Server is configured to obtain and use
: information from the directory for this zone and is unable to load the
: zone without it. Check that the Active Directory is functioning
: properly and reload the zone. The event data is the error code.
:
: The subnet is 192.168.30.xxx Class C
:
:
: From the system log I get: id 5782
: Dynamic registration or deregistration of one or more DNS records
: failed with the following error:
: No DNS servers configured for local system.
:
: syd.local is currently a primary - I've tried making it AD - no joy.
: The DC has itself set as the primary DNS.
It loks like it is querying for an SRV record in a single label domain name.
Post your unedited ipconfig /all and the domain name from ADU&C, please.
