Re: DNS not getting Info from Clients

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Paul,

Thanks again for the info. I downloaded that Policy maker yesterday and
for the life of me could not get the registry settings to roll out via
the GPO I created. Does the policy maker for some odd reason need to be
install on all the machines that need this policy or is it just an
extesion in the GPMC and that is all it is???

Run dcdiag and netdiag in verbose mode.
dcdiag /e /c /v /s:DC_Name /f:c:\dcdiag.log
netdiag.exe /v > c:\netdiag.log

If you download a gui script I wrote it should be simple to set and run.
It
also has the option to run individual tests without having to learn all
the
switch options. The details will be output in notepad text files that
pop
up automagically.

The script is located in the download section on my website at
http://www.pbbergs.com

Just select both dcdiag and netdiag make sure verbose is set. (Leave the
default settings for dcdiag as set when selected)

When complete search for fail, error and warning messages.

I am running 2k3 with SP1 on my network and have recently taken over
the Admin duties here. The issue I have found at this point is that not
all of the clients are reporting back to the DNS server. Here is the
kicker..we have all static IP's..yes workstations and all. I cannot
seem to find any good info on how and if this would affect the DNS
updates. I know that all the workstations have the same network
settings as they are all based off one image I created. So any ideas
why some will report and others will not? any help is appreciated in
advance.



Thanks, that is some good info. Also since you seem to knowledgable is
there any GOOD way to get a .REG file installed on a network of
machines? I have not been able to find anything in GPMC that will help
and I have tried some batch files I wrote and none seem to work very
well or at all.


Thanks
