OK Herb, my 2nd NIC was not disabled. Disabled it, ran netdiag. No runs, no
drips, no errors. Terrific, but then I ran dcdiag and failed the systemlog
test. It gave me EventID: 0xC0001B70 and event string: The Messenger service
terminated with ...........XXX failed test systemlog. Checked system events
and it shows event ID 4015. Checked MS KB and it states that "The DNS Server
has encountered a critical error from the Active Directory. Check that the
Active Directory is functioning properly. Now I am really going to sound
stupid. How do I check the AD to see if it is functioning properly ?
