Re: ad and dns setup

Hi
(assuming that your test server is NOT going to be connected again to the
production environment)
Can you explain how did you removed the setup from a different network?
Did you removed references to existing DCs in the Real environment? Did you
Seize the roles? Did you run dcdiag and netdiag after that?

I hope that the information above helps you.
Have a Nice day.

okay here is my setup.....

I have a test env. with forest a.com and 2 domains within, b.a.com and
c.a.com.(all win2003)
I have pulled this setup from a different network and want to configure it
on a different network.
I have three ad sites and all the ou's and gpo's are setup. I am not
worried about names conflicting as this will be on an isolated network but
would like to keep all the ad stuff intact.
I tried to change the ip setup on all these servers and restarted dns and
the netlogon service. i did a dnsflush and dns register and i am still not
able to have dns work correctly. all the dcs(6 in all, are dns servers and
there are 2 servers per site)....i am getting alot of kdc errors and frs
errors as well as nslookup doesn't come back with the right server. my
question besides what am i missing is, do i need to change the ns in dns
on
all machines, and should i get rid of all old ips in dns and replace with
new
ones...also i created new ad sites with the new ip addresses and assigned
servers to those sites and deleted the old ones.. i rebooted one of the
a.com
servers and now i can't even log in...i guess my question is when changing
over to a new network with an exsiting ad and dns, how can i achive no
pain
in doing this?
