(I posted this to multiple NGs since I had errors in: ADS, DNS,
Exchange2000)
I have an SBS2000 Server (SP4) running ADS, with Exchange 2000 (SP3).
When I try to launch the Microsoft System Attendant, I get the errors in the
Application Log (attached below).
I have looked at DNS as well as ADS; DNS has an issue in that if I
stop/restart netlogon, the <GUID>._msdcs.chc.local entry is an alias to
"chc01." instead of "chc01.chc.local". I have tried numerous changes to the
TCP/IP configuration and *none* have caused it to behave as I would expect.
I'm hoping someone will see something I have missed. I attached as much
data as possible so you wouldn't have to waste time asking me to post more,
however, if I didn't post what you need, let me know and I will post it.
Thanks in advance.

**In Addition, when DNS launches, I get the following:
<BEGIN DNS LOG>
Source: DNS
Category: None
EventID: 414
Description:
The DNS server machine currently has no DNS domain name. Its DNS name is a
single label hostname with no domain (example: "host" rather than
"host.microsoft.com").
You might have forgotten to configure a primary DNS domain for the server
computer. For more information, see either "DNS server log reference" or "To
configure the primary DNS suffix for a client computer" in the online Help.
While the DNS server has only a single label name, all zones created will
have default records (SOA and NS) created using only this single label name
for the server's hostname. This can lead to incorrect and failed referrals
when clients and other DNS servers use these records to locate this server
by name.
To correct this problem:
1) open ControlPanel
2) open System applet
3) select NetworkIdentification tab
4) click the "Properties" button and enter a domain name or workgroup name;
this name will be used as your DNS domain name
5) reboot to initialize with new domain name
After reboot, the DNS server will attempt to fix up default records,
substituting new DNS name of this server, for old single label name.
However, you should review to make sure zone's SOA and NS records now
properly use correct domain name of this server.
