child domain install

[brandie]

I am trying to install a new child domain, I keep getting
an error "There was an error determining if the domain
name is unique" any help would be appreciated

That may indicate that the Domain Naming Master is unavailable because it is
responsible for verifying that a domain name is unique. I suggest that you
verify that the DC that holds that role is available. You should check the
c:\winnt\debug\dcpromo.log file for more details. The following error may
help.
