Here are the "failed" parts of the report from diagnostics;
It first fails on Global results, domain membership test. "Warning: This
system volume has not been completely replicated to the local machine. This
machine is not working properly as a DC". Next, it fails on the trust
relationship and kerboros test.
It appears that when first joining the domain as a DC something failed. I
tried to dcpromo so I could try to join again...but as previously stated I
can't demote as the server never fully joined.
Thoughts, appreciated.
