Hi I have a Windows 2000 Domain Controler and a recently added Windows 2000
Terminal Server. After adding the TS to the domain and tring to log in to the
domain I get the following error:

The system can not log you on due to the following error:
The RPC server is unavailable
Please try again or consult your system administrator

I get the following errors in the event log:
Source: NETLOGON
Event ID: 5788
Attempt to update HOST Service Principal Names (SPNs) of the computer object
in Active Directory failed. The updated values were '<UNAVAILABLE>' and
'<UNAVAILABLE>'. The following error occurred:
The RPC server is unavailable.

Source: NETLOGON
Event ID: 5789
Attempt to update DNS Host Name of the computer object in Active Directory
failed. The updated value was 'revesby-ts.revesby.revesby.com.au'. The
following error occurred:
The RPC server is unavailable.

Also:
Source: TermService
Event ID: 1010
The terminal services could not locate a license server. Confirm that all
license servers on the network are registered in WINS\DNS, accepting network
requests, and the Terminal Services Licensing Service is running.


Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
 
Did you change the IP address of the DC. If you did you will have to recreate
the SVR records. You will have to delete the originals in the DNS console
and then restart the netlogon service to recreate the records. I imagine
that the login takes a long time now as well.

You will see them under the _UDP, _TCP, _MSDCS, _sites folders.

Often I just delete these folders first.
Then I restart the Netlogin service.

It should recreate them.
Oh, another point. Make sure the DC is looking at itself for DNS services.
At least for now. You can change that later.


I imagine
