Domain Cannot be Contacted
LockedWhen trying to add a person to the local administrator’s group on a Win2k machine, we are being told that access is denied or the domain could not be contacted. This is happening even though we are on the domain and are able to navigate resources.
Here’s the catch. We are dealing with a central office and several remote sites. There is no connection between the sites. Right now, all of the servers are in their own little kingdoms at each location and are configured as domain controllers. We built the Win2k Pro machine in question at the central office, then relocated it to a remote site. We are trying to do the add at the remote site when we get the message. Is this because the Win2k Pro machine is looking for a specific domain controller with a specific sid?
