This has nothing to do with an MX record, 5774 events are generally caused
from using your ISP's DNS in TCP/IP properties. All members of an AD domain
must use the local DNS server that hosts the zone for the AD domain.
On a side note, It looks like you have named your active directory domain
www.jaco.com I can see this is going to cause you some unexpected results.
When a member of an AD domain authenticates to the domain and gets its group
policies assigned it uses the domain name to find the policies. That name
must resolve to an IP address on a domain controller that has file sharing
enabled. So in your case this share will be found at
\\
www.jaco.com\SYSVOL\www.jaco.com\policies Are you beginning to see the
problem you are going to have with this name?
I know that when you access
www.jaco.com you are going to want to get your
website, if that web site is not on your domain controllers then when your
machines get their GPOs they will be trying to find their GPOs on the web
server.
I would recommend you demote this and choose a different domain like
jaco.local.
