Ok I am upgrading an NT 4 domain to 2000 and had some problems with hardware on 1 of the servers. After upgrading this server and installing all the windows updates etc I decided to dcpromo it into AD. But the server died half way through the install. This has done something to my DNS on my fist 2000 AD server and I can’t get it to work. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the DNS and reconfiguring it from scratch, but nothing seems to work. The doggy server has had the hardware replaced and was reinstalled to 2000 and dcpromo’ed on to the AD but wont run DNS properly and wont replicate any of the AD. If anyone can help, I would be very grateful.
Server 1: arc20840099 ? first AD 2000 server. Running DNS, DHCP, WINS
Server 2: cdserver – second AD 2000 server. Running nothing but dcpromo?ed to the first server. Also wont run DNS properly when installed (was trying to use it as a replacement DNS)
All server point to arc20840099 for DNS and WINS both servers have static IP?s
