Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Check the logs for warning and errors.
Is SYSVOL shared?

Greetings,

Using Win2k3 R2, 1 domain, 2 DCs with DNS servers (secure). Say DC1
and DC2. DC1 works fine and admins can logon normally. So in order to
test DC2 I unplugged DC1 from the network.

Problem is nobody can logon on DC2. I just removed and reinstall AD
succesfully on DC2 using dcpromo. Still can't logon.
DC2 DNS client point to itself first then DC1. The error message I get
is:

"The system can not log you on. Make sure your user name and domain are
correct then check your password again." blabla When I reconnect DC1 on
the LAN, everything is working beautifully.

Whats wrong with DC2 ???

TIA

Gillies
