WDGC PROBLEM IN MY DOMAIN CONTROLLER2

[wASIM mASOUD]

My problem is that I have a LAN in my company consists of
about 40 PCs and 6 servers, 2 of these servers are domain
controllers using Windows 2000 server, we have only one
domain called (GASCO.AL-AMERYA), the problem starts when I
tried to access the first domain controller (gasco-server)
from Network Neighborhood, I got "login failure: The
target account name is incorrect" message although I'm
administrator, when I unplugged the network UTP cable from
the second domain controller (gasco-foxboro), I can access
the first domain controller! I believe that there is no
problem with the first domain controller; the problem
exists in the second domain controller. I decided to make
the second DC as a member server by using the command
dcpromo and then I can make it again as a DC, during the
process of removing the active directory from the server
using dcpromo I got this message:
"The operation failed because: Managging the network with
gasco-server.gasco.al-amerya failed "login failure: The
target account name is incorrect""
And I got another one:
"Naming information cannot be located because: the target
principal name in incorrect"
Please, Inform me what to do - in details - as soon as
possible
Thank you very much

You have a DNS issue here. Is the second box (problem one) pointed at the
first box for DNS, and vice versa? That's step one to check.

Next, do a dcdiag and a netdiag ont he boxes asn see what errors you come up
with.
