Re: cannot join domain using fqdn



Run diagnostics against your Active Directory domain.

If you don't have the tools installed, install them from your server install
disk.
d:\support\tools\setup.exe

Run dcdiag, netdiag and repadmin in verbose mode.
-> DCDIAG /V /C /D /E /s:yourdcname > c:\dcdiag.log
-> netdiag.exe /v > c:\netdiag.log (On each dc)
-> repadmin.exe /showrepl dc* /verbose /all /intersite > c:\repl.txt

**Note: Using the /E switch in dcdiag will run diagnostics against ALL dc's
in the forest. If you have significant numbers of DC's this test could
generate significant detail and take a long time. You also want to take
into account slow links to dc's will also add to the testing time.

If you download a gui script I wrote it should be simple to set and run
(DCDiag and NetDiag). 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.


From your dc try running dnslint /ad /s "ip address of your dc"

Hi all ,

I have this problem.
Computers cannot join domain using fqnd name , using the netbios name
it works fine.
Also I cannot promote a new child domain for the same problem.

The dns query give the correct result , correct domain controller but
they are not reacheble.
I make many test using dcdiag,netdiag,netdom,nlstest and all resutls
semms ok.
I veryfy the TCP netbios service that is running.....

Followings the errore reported when I try join domain using the
fqdn :

Active Directory domain controller for the domain it.kfc cannot be
reached

DNS was successfully queried for the service location (SRV) resource
record used to locate a domain controller for domain it.uci:

The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.it.kfc

The following domain controllers were identified by the query:

dc01.it.kfc
dc02.it.kfc

Common causes of this error include:

- Host (A) records that map the name of the domain controller to its
IP addresses are missing or contain incorrect addresses.

- Domain controllers registered in DNS are not connected to the
network or are not running.

For information about correcting this problem, click Help.


Any ideas ???

Many thaks in advance for replies.....
