Joining a Windows 7 VM to a Windows 2008 R2 VM
I'm getting this error: DNS was successfully queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate a domain controller for domain "ANDURIAL.COM": The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.ANDURIAL.COM The following domain controllers were identified by the query: windowssrv.andurial.com However no domain controllers could be contacted. Common causes of this error include: - Host (A) or (AAAA) records that map the names of the domain controllers to their IP addresses are missing or contain incorrect addresses. - Domain controllers registered in DNS are not connected to the network or are not running. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I'm configured two NICs on my Server. I am using one NIC as a bridge to my host and the other is connected to a custom:virtual network. The Windows 7 Client computer is connected directly to the custom: virtual network - I figured that the client can use the server has a gateway to get to the internet. - I have configured the server as a DC, DNS Server, and DHCP Server. ipconfig /all (Server): C:\Windows\system32>ipconfig /all Windows IP Configuration Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : WindowsSRV Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . : Andurial.com Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Hybrid IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . . . . : No DNS Suffix Search List. . . . . . : Andurial.com hsd1.fl.comcast.net.

I believe I have made progress: DNS was successfully queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate a domain controller for domain "ANDURIAL.COM": The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.ANDURIAL.COM The following domain controllers were identified by the query: windowssrv.andurial.com However no domain controllers could be contacted.

Hi, Can you ping the domain name ANDURIAL.COM on Windows 7. Otherwise, take a look in the similar thread. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/eu/winserverDS/thread/d71c0828-753a-4eb6-b6d1-fc14a9ca977a If it issue still persists, please upload Netsetup.log to Skydrive and post the link here.

Yes the ping was actually successful. I has discovered a work around where I add the DC to the host file. I would still like to find our what is wrong with DNS however. I will explore the article you linked. Thanks

This is not a Firewall issue as I have disabled the firewall. This issue is now preventing me from adding a Exchange server to the network. I will get the netsetup/.log when ready

I believe this is the issue: Issue: The Domain Name System (DNS) host (A/AAAA) resource records that map from the fully qualified DNS domain name to the IPv4 or IPv6 addresses are not registered on this domain controller. All domain controllers must register these records. Impact: Other member computers and domain controllers in the domain or forest will not be able to locate this domain controller. This domain controller will not be able to provide a full suite of services. Resolution: Ensure that the DNS Client service on the server is configured to register the appropriate host (A/AAAA) resource records with an authoritative DNS server for the domain. ------------------------------------------------- That being said in order to set up my DHCP server I had to configure a static address which I did. I keep seeing the following. That IP address is always unknown. I can change it but moments later it reverts to unknown.
