I run a small business and have Windows 2000 setup with
AD. The Windows 2000 servers acts as teh DNS server. I
have a few workstations on the network raging from ME,
Windows 2000 Pro, and XP Pro. Here's the problem, the
2000 and XP workstations suffer from extremely slow login
(but work fine once loged into the network). The XP
machine gets the following errors when logging on:
Automatic certificate enrollment for local system failed
to contact the active directory (oX8007054b). The
specified domain either does not exist or could not be
contacted. Enrollment will not be performed.
Windows cannot obtain the domain controller name for your
computer network. (The specified domain either does not
exist or could not be contacted.). Group Policy
processing aborted.
This does not happen on the ME workstations!
I have all the workstations set up to auto detect the DNS
server. If I "hard code" the IP of the perfered DNS
server, the login works much faster, but I cannot get
onto the internet!?
The network config is as follows:
1. All workstations are conencted to a switch
2. A router hangs off of the switch
3. A DLS modem hangs off of the router to connect to the
internet.
I would hard code the DNS address to get faster login,
but I need the internet access!
I have not been able to find anything to help so far.
Thanks in advance!
