1) Is the network cable plugged in and fully seated?
2) Can you ping the DC by IP? By name?
3) In the network adapter TCP?IP properties, is the client configured with a
'Preferred DNS Server' of a DNS server supporting the Active Directory
domain?
4) In the network adapter TCP?IP properties, is the client configured with a
'Primay DNS Suffix' matching that of the Active Directory DNS domain name?
5) Do SRV records for the DC exist in DNS?
6) Ensure the Internet Connection Firewall is *not* enabled on the DC and no
other host-based firewall running on it.
7) Run an adware/spyware scan on the client computer.
8) Ensure the domain is not a single-label domain name.
9) Verify you do not have a disjointed namespace. This can cause they same
sort of issues that a single-label name can cause.
