Our network consists of one Win2000 server, service pack 1, and one NT4.0 server,service pack 6a. I am a novice when it comes to the use of DNS on the internal network, and am not sure how the WIN2000 and NT4.0 server interact at the DNS level. Does anyone know if these errors are significant and how I fix them? (I have replaced the registered domain name of this LAN with “companyname” in the following event log entries)
Thanks to all.
Our server is logging the following errors regularly:
