I have a DC (2003) w/gc,dns,dhcp at a site. It will replicate with other sites ok but will not let clients log onto it. I do a dcdiag and get errors...mainly access denied. It almost seems like a policy of some sort but I haven't changed any policies and only have 2 anyway. I do a netdiag and bet the above... procedure entry Point DnsGetPrimaryDomainName_UTF8 could not be located in the dinamic link library DNSapi.dll
It is as if this DC has gone somewhere on its own. Any Ideas... without rebuilding and without restoring?

Sounds like the dll has been overwritten or corrupted some how. Try running SFC /SCANNOW to scan and repair the system files.

Note if using WinXP/Win2k3 one should use the Netdiag.exe supplied on the install cd WinXP(X:\Support\Tools\Setup.exe) / Win2k3 (X:\Support\Tools\suptools.msi), or else one will get the following error:
netdiag.exe - Entry Point Not Found :

The procedure entry point DnsIsDynamicRegistrationEnabled could not be located in the dynamic link library DNSAPI.dll
The procedure entry point DnsGetPrimaryDomainName_UTF8 could not be located in the dynamic link library DNSAPI.dll
