I have a very serious problem from a long time, I want to know that If we have installed windows 2000 Server ( DC with active directory installed). Because ADS work with DNS, so if we uninstalled DNS accidently or delete the zone containg the activedirectory data, then no any client is able to join domain even that ADS does'nt remove from system. Tell me what is the way for troubeshoot this problem of DNS with ADS.

Assuming that you have only a single domain, you should be able to reinstall DNS and recreate the DNS zone. When you create the zone you can choose to create an Active Directory-integrated zone. If each server and workstation is configured for dynamic DNS (default for Windows 2000) then the zone will be recreated when clients register their name with the DNS server.
Use IPCONFIG /REGISTERDNS to accomplish this on your Windows 2000 machines.
