Please Wait While Domain List Is Created

G

Guest

I have a win2k3 domain using AD.

After I join computers to the domain - process works find - press
cntrl-alt-del to log in and choose my new domain name I get a message that
says:

"Please wait while domain list is created"

What causes that and how do I stop it? I know my DNS server is fine, I know
DHCP sends the right info to the clients too.

Thanks

I have tested DNS it works. My DNS all points to my internal DNS servers -
and my internal DNS has fwders set to my ISP's DNS.

Could it take longer over a wireless network for DHCP to register itself
with DNS? Step 3 from that link
http://www.chicagotech.net/winissues/domain1.htm says to make sure that the
computer registers an A record with DNS.

More info - doubt that it matters - the computer was
ghosted/renamed/rebooted/joined to domain.

ghosted/renamed/rebooted/joined to domain could be the problem. compare the result of ipconfig /all and DNS a record. make sure both name and IP are the same. Please post back with the result.

Of Course now I cannot duplicate the problem to check this.

Next time I see this problem I will check immediately. I plan to ghost many
machines this week.
