DNS failing

by otaku_lord . Updated 15 years, 11 months ago

We recently demoted a DC/DNS server in a satellite office. Before we did we created a new DC/DNS and let it run for a couple of weeks to allow for replication and testing. When we retired the original server we started getting DNS issues. All have been resolved except that now the users cannot access shares located at the CO. When you ping using the FQDN it goes through correctly but when you ping by simple name it fails to some unknown IP and shows RTIs. When you try to connect via Start -> Run you get the error message: No network provider accepted the given network path.

I have checked DNS and all A and PTR records seem to be there. NSLOOKUP shows the correct DNS server. There is a WINS server but I am not sure if it is set up correctly or even how to verify that it is.
