Hi Meinolf,

I have just done that but I doubt if that helps.
Ive removed that just a few hours ago and the GPO and DNS problem
exists for
about 2 weeks now.
Can I help by posting a unedited copy/paste of an ipconfig /all from a
client?

Best regards

Dear Meinolf,

this is the ipconfig /all from the DC:

Windows IP Configuration

Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : dc01
Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : maddogs.local
Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Hybrid
IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No
WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . . . . : No
DNS Suffix Search List. . . . . . : maddogs.local
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Intel 8255x-based PCI Ethernet
Adapter (10/100)
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-02-B3-50-67-03
DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No

I don't use a secondary zone, it's the zone created when installing
DNS

Please post an unedited ipconfig /all from the DC. Do you use AD
integrated zones? Or is this a secondary zone?

Dear Meinorf,

I use standard secure dynamic updates only on the
zone properties yes.
On none of the computers (both DC and clients) no firewall
software
is
running, only standard antivirus software.
Registered in de DNS is only SOA, WINS lookup and NS. For the rest
nothing happens in the DNS forward lookup zone.

extra information:

I also have disjoined and rejoined the client to the domain with
no problem at all.

Maby that info could also be helpfull.

Hello Harmjan,

If the clients are domain members they have to be registered in
your DNS server. Did you run ipconfig /registerdns on a client
to check if they will registrate?

Is the new server Global catalog? You didn't mention it.

During your migration i assume you added the new server as a
member to the domain and then run dcpromo on it? Or did you
just install a new domain with the same old name?

Dear Meinolf,

None of the clients are registered in DNS (forgot to mention
that). That is the main reason why I think the problem is in
the DNS settings.

We had an old server and I migrated everything to the new
server.
The old server was demoted succesfully and the new DC has all
the
master
roles, DNS and DHCP server.
with gpresult /v I also get an error about not having "RVB"
information.
gpupdate /force does not give an error but no result aswell
(gpupdate and gpresult are the first things I always check,
even
when the GPO's does work).
Best regards

Hello Harmjan,

Also check that the policy is applied on the client with
gpresult /v. If the output is to big for the command window
pipe it to textfile:

gpresult /v >c:\output.txt

If you not run gpupdate /force on the client the new policy
setting can take about 90 minutes to apply to the
workstation, because of the refresh time of the policy.

Dear Meinolf,

Then I think I have fixed the problem already by just
removing
the
IP
address in DNS server on the domain controller (by default
it
then
takes
localhost).
It was only aftre a (re)boot by the way.
All the clients are XP.
The config you mentioned was not configured so I have
configured
and
tested
it just now, result:
No result...
On the old server it has always worked like I have
configured
but
with
the new server I can't seem to get it work.

Hello Harmjan,

Scroll down to 5781 in this one, you can prevent or ignore
it
if
it
is just
after booting the server:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/259277
What OS are the clients? If XP, have you configured the
"Always
wait
for the network at computer startup and logon" policy? See
under
Computer configuration, administrative templates, System,
Logon.

another strange issue with DNS.

Setting:
1 Domain Controller (192.168.2.101)
5 clients (DHCP (192.168.2.1 - 192.168.2.99)
Internet through a router. (192.168.2.1)
DC contains AD, DNS and DHCP.
DNS is configured default and does not give any error in
event
viewer at all. Name server: DC01, 192.168.2.101
DHCP has the following settings:
scope: 192.168.2.1 - 192.168.2.99 (255.255.255.0)
Server options:
router: 192.168.2.1
Name server: 192.168.2.101
DNS server: 192.168.2.101
DNS Domain name: maddogs.local
WINS: 192.168.2.101
when IPconfig /all on a client I get the following
results:
Host name: bar01
Primary DNS suffix: maddogs.local
Node Type: Hybride
IP routing enabled: no
WINS Proxy enabled: no
DNS suffix search list: maddogs.local
DHCP Enabled: yes
IP Address: 192.168.2.3
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 192.168.2.1
DHCP Server: 192.168.2.101
DNS server: 192.168.2.101
Logon works with roaming profiles.
Internet works on all clients.
the shares on the internal nerwork work.
and now the problem:
Logon takes a very long time, it's extreme slow.
GPO's do not work at all.
when typing gpresult /user <username> on a client I get an
error
about
missing RVB information (it's a dutch version and I have
no
idea
what
RVB
means but i get this error with existing users and non
existing
users
so I
guess it is user information from AD).
I have installed DNS and DHCP again and again but it just
won't
work.
in system event viewer I get an error (event ID: 5781)
something
about failing registration of deletion of DNS records on
the
DNS
domain forestdnszones.maddogs.local
anyone an idea?
