Firewall is off and DNS is not important, because I can not connect to
\\ip address\share.
Though my DNS is pointing directly to Domain Controller.

I tried all the advice on the forums, I can ping the domain controller and get to the internet. The domain controller request a username and password then I get the error. The computer stopped being able to connect to the domain, I removed the
computer account and I tried to re add it but cannot. It keeps giving me the same error.
If I try to connect to a share \\ip address\share it gives me an error as well.
I tried deleted the IP6 to 4 devices, but nothing is working, I do not want to rebuild this laptop.

Hi,
check DNS server settings and firewall settings on client.

Hi,


Firstly, please let us know the following:


1. Does the issue occur with other computers in the same network?
2. Is the shared foloder you try to connect also in the domain? What is the exact error message?
3. Is it the first time to join the computer to this domain?


If you can join the same domain previously, please perform a
system restore and see how it works.


If it is the first time joining the domain or if issue persists after a system restore, based on my research, please try the following:


1. Try using nslookup command line to see if your system can resolve your domain name.

The syntax is
nslookup your full domain name

2. Check if TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper service is started.



3. Refer to
Network Location Awareness (NLA) and how it relates to Windows Firewall Profiles and check if your Network Location is Home or Work


4. Check if there is more detailed error information is event viewer.


5. Refer to the similar thread, try the steps and see how it works.
"Network location cannot be reached." when rejoining domain


Also, it is recommended to contact your network administrator to check both sides.


Hope this helps.

Hi

Just to check, does your server have a dynamic or static IP?
Possible to let us know the exact error message you received when you try to connect to the fileshare?

Cheers!
