to

>>
>> Let"s do follow steps to try to resolve the issue:
>>

ensure

external

>> recommended and normal configuration.
>>
>> II. Please ensure proper binding order of the network adapter cards. The
>> internal network card should be at the top. The detail steps:
>>
>> a. Right-click the My Network Place and click Properties to open Network
>> Connections page.
>> b. Click Advanced in the menu and click Advanced Settings in dropdown
list.
>> c. Under the Adapters and Bindings tab page put the internal Nic at the
top
>> in Advanced Settings page.
>>
>> III. Try to rejoin clients to domain using client computer setup wizard:
>>
>> For your reference, I list the detail steps:
>>
>> 1). Quit workstation from the domain. To do so, see:
>>
>> Locate in Client Computers in Server Management console and choose the
>> computer the customer has in right panel. Click Remove from network link
to
>> delete the computer from domain.
>>
>> 2). Setup the client computer by running Setup Client Computer wizard to
>> setup computer account.
>>
>> 3). In the client computer, try to join it to domain by running
>> http://servername/connectcomputer. And assign appropriate user accounts
to
>> the computer.
>>
>> Note: Please ensure you have added the SBS Site (http://FQDN/*) in
trusted
>> site in IE of the laptop. You can refer to the following steps:
>>
>> a. Start Internet Explorer.
>> b. On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
>> c. On the Security tab, click Local intranet zone, and then click Sites.
>> d. Click Advanced.
>> e. In the Add this Web site to the zone box, type the ConnectComputer
>> server's IP address or the ConnectComputer server's FQDN, and then click
>> Add.
>>
>> Try to test again and check if everything is OK.
>>
>> I appreciate your time and efforts to the issue. I am currently standing
by
