If nothing helps I guess the only optuin is to reinstall server,
completely create a new domain and AD and import all the GPO's but
that wil take quite a long time and I still don't know what went
wrong, it all seems ok but DNS is not working as it should...

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?

Dear Meinolf,

this is the ipconfig /all from the DC:

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

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:
