AD Sites and Services/ subnets

[Graham]

Having joined a company with a relitively unconfigured AD,
I found no subnets in the "AD Sites and Services" set up.
Realising that the network address here was 192.168.0.0/22
and 192.168.4.0/22 , I entered these as subnets.

Since this amendment, the System log reports:

----------------------------------------------------------
Source: NETLOGON Event: 5778

'<computername>' tried to determine its site by looking up
its IP address ('192.168.1.56') in the
Configuration\Sites\Subnets container in the DS. No
subnet matched the IP address. Consider adding a subnet
object for this IP address
----------------------------------------------------------


Now, according to my understanding this IP is within the
subnet addresses range! Can anyone explain why the event
is asking me to add a subnet that I have added?

Hi Graham, still at it?

I assumed that you created a Site, then created the subnet object, then
associated that with the Site? Did you delete the Default-First-Site-Name?
