We upgraded our old NT4 PDC to w2k domian. We also
install a new w2k as a member server. After the upgrade,
I tried to add the new w2k as an additional domain
controller, but got this error " Failed finding a
suitable domain controller for the domain xyz.com, the
specified domain either does not exist or could not be
contacted. Our DNS is still on NT4, WINS is on NT4 & W2K.
Can somebody help please. Thanks.
