Re: Unable to connect new vista terminal to SBS 2003 R2

Post a new IP config from the server LAN and that workstation. Also, did you
check that there is only ONE NIC active on the workstation? If it does have
a build-in wireless or any VPN connector installed, you need to disable
those. Only the LAN NIC should be active when you try to join it into the
domain.

Hi Claus

Ok, have changed the LAN properties as instucted, but the workstation
still
won't connect.

Any other ideas?

You need to make the change on you LAN card. The LAN card is currently
pointing to 2.1.as the WINS instead of 2.2.

Go to the LAN properties, select TCP/IP, select properties, click on the
advanced tab, click on the WINS tab and change the IP to 2.2.

Hi Claus,

Sorry to be a dunce and be a bit over cautious but being a newbie I'm
not
wanting to change the wrong thing!

Can you let me know exactly what it is I need to do. I've looked at
WINS
in
advanced management and can't obviously see what you are referring to,
or
do
I need to go in to properties of the lan network connection?

Thanks again for all your continued help!

In follow up to my last post, If i manually try to connect to
the
domain,
I
get the following error message...

"Note: This information is intended for a network
administrator.
If
you
are
not your network's administrator, notify the administrator that
you
received
this information, which has been recorded in the file
C:\Windows\debug\dcdiag.txt.

The following error occurred when DNS was queried for the
service
location
(SRV) resource record used to locate an Active Directory Domain
Controller
for domain domainname.local:

The error was: "DNS server failure."
(error code 0x0000232A RCODE_SERVER_FAILURE)

The query was for the SRV record for
_ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.domainname.local

Common causes of this error include the following:

- The DNS servers used by this computer contain incorrect root
hints.
This
computer is configured to use DNS servers with the following IP
addresses:

192.168.2.2

- One or more of the following zones contains incorrect
delegation:

domainname.local
local
. (the root zone)

Thanks for the suggestions, but still no luck. I have 11 other
Vista
Enterprise terminals running off the server and I had no
problem
with
setting
those up.

Once again I am open to suggestions, I'm wondering if maybe it
is
a
Reverse
DNS problem, as the message states 'error occured when
configuring
network
settings'? If it is a DNS issue, I am not very good on this
(sorry
still
a
newbie to all this) So would welcome any/all help and a walk
through.

Hope someone can help

Agree with Claus. Best practice with SBS is to use the

I'm not sure about this advice. Most people in here will
not
agree.
SBS
works best if you use the tools that are provided with it.

Have a look at this it might solve your problem....

Note that there are patches for the server AND the Vista
workstation.
