    You would add the site server's machine account to the Administrators group
    on the DC so it can access AD. From a cmd prompt on the DC, "net localgroup
    /add Administrators <site server machine name>$" should do it. Then check
    the Administrators group to be sure it really did get added.
    However, the error may be due to not having extended the sms schema (you can
    use extadsch.exe to do this) - have you done that?
