Can't connect machine to domain
I can't get my machine to connect to the domain. I've tried flushing the dns and turning off my firewalls, all to no avail. I have set my dns to the Domain Controllers ip address. When I attempt to connect my machine, I get the following error: The following error occurred when DNS was queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate an Active Directory Domain Controller (AD DC) for domain "mydomain": The error was: "DNS name does not exist." (error code 0x0000232B RCODE_NAME_ERROR) The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.mydomain Common causes of this error include the following: - The DNS SRV records required to locate a AD DC for the domain are not registered in DNS. These records are registered with a DNS server automatically when a AD DC is added to a domain. They are updated by the AD DC at set intervals. This computer is configured to use DNS servers with the following IP addresses: 172.16.10.101 - One or more of the following zones do not include delegation to its child zone: mydomain com The netlogon service is not running on the client machine, which may be a problem. Whenever I try to start it, it says it started and then stopped. It won't stay started. Thanks in advance!

The strange part is that while my physical machine cannot ping the dc (says it can't find the host. Works when IP is used), a VM running on the same machine can.

Hi, According to your description, the issue should related with your DNS server. Please run ipconfig /registerdns on all DNS servers to see the result. Also you can run the same command on Windows 7. If the issue persists, I suggest to contact Windows Server Forum for further help: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windowsserver The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.
