It is just as the message says, it is a non RFC name that is only valid only
on Windows 2000 servers.
Go to the system32\config\ directory and delete the Netlogon.dns and
netlogon.dnb files. Then run ipconfig /flushdns, ipconfig /registerdns and
restart the netlogon service. Run netdiag /fix and netdiag /test:dns /v
