DNS problem from event error 2087, exchange email down, file shares down, printers down
Hi, we have 3 servers in our company, which I did not setup. An Oracle linux server, an applications server, and a DC mailserver which handles exchange server, file shares, and printer sharing. This mailserver stopped working correctly today and looked at the event viewer and found error 2087, a replication error which everything I have found on it points to a DNS problem. I don't know anything about this but have done this. I ran dcdiag /test:dns and it produced errors, did not find a time server, and found that all KDC's are down, among other things. I am a programmer by training, but not a network person at all. This is causing all our email to be down, printers are not working, and network response times are horrific. Please help if you can be patient. Thanks! This server is Windows 2003 Standard SP2.
