From: Bertram on 5 May 2006 08:27 Yahoo! I've managed to get somewhere... I've now got a DNS service with an AD-integrated forward zone set up. There are still some worrying items in the output from dcdiag though - I've included the output below in the hope that someone can shed some light on my (new?) problem. ================ Command Line: "dcdiag.exe /v /d /c" Domain Controller Diagnosis Performing initial setup: * Verifying that the local machine ag-dbsvr, is a DC. * Connecting to directory service on server ag-dbsvr. ag-dbsvr.currentTime = 20060505121831.0Z ag-dbsvr.highestCommittedUSN = 307279 ag-dbsvr.isSynchronized = 1 ag-dbsvr.isGlobalCatalogReady = 1 * Collecting site info. * Identifying all servers.

From: strongline on 5 May 2006 08:59 the server "TMPSVR" wasn't demoted gracefully. You need do perform a metadata cleanup. Also your current DC doesn't look like the PDC owner ( I know you've check once, but please double check). It doesn't hurt to seize it again. Q216498 Q255504

Any suggestions? Oh, and for some as-yet unknown reason my DNS zone disappeared again when I rebooted. Resetting teh kerberos password, and restarting netlogon/DNS brought it back again. If anyone has any suggestions for me to try over the weekend (God bless Remote Desktop and VPNs!) please let me know!
From: Jorge Silva on 5 May 2006 14:24 Hi again... Please answer This question: 1 - In your first post after the first test for dcdiag, you said that you finally got the Dns working with AD integrated right? Please tell us what did you changed to achive that ? Now: 1- Remove any references to "tempsvr.mydomain.net" i believe this was the old server. use this link: How to remove data in Active Directory after an unsuccessful domain controller demotion http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B216498&x=6&y=11#XSLTH3140121122120121120120 After this Use the Active Directory Sites and Services MMC snap-in to remove the server "tempsvr.mydomain.net" object. VERY IMPORTANT - Next go to the Dns and remove any references to this server. Or you can delete the dns zone and recreate it again, using the steps that i already gave you in previous posts, deleting the netlogon files, etc... Reboot the server twice. Run the tests again.. -- I hop that helps Good Luck Jorge Silva MCSA Systems Administrator "Bertram" <BertramWilberforceWooster(a)gmail.com> wrote in message news:1146832027.844673.197680(a)e56g2000cwe.googlegroups.com... > Yahoo!

Hi again! What finally resolved the DNS issue appears to be resetting the Kerberos password by running netdom resetpasswd. Upon rebooting the machine, then starting and stopping netlogon and DNS, the correct forward zone entries were automatically created. The problem is not entirely resolved, as I have actually had to do this again over the weekend, as the problem reared it's ugly head again. I have followed your instructions and removed any references to tmpserver - I will reboot it twice shortly. Apropos the kerberos problem... do you think this is related to the references to tmpserver? Should it be permanently resolved now that these references have been removed? Your help and persistence with this problem are enormously appreciated - you've saved me pulling out a lot of my hair. You are a credit and example to this newgroup and the internet in general. Thanks again, Berty |
