Problems Joining A Domain with Windows 7 to Windows SBS 2003
The Following error occured while attempting to join the Domain "An attempt to resolve the DNS name of a domain controller in the domain being joined has failed. Please verify this client is configured to reach a DNS server that can resolve DNS names in the target domain. For information about network troubleshooting, see Windows Help."I upgraded from Windows Vista Ultimate to Windows 7 Ultimate where this computer was already connected to the domain.I say upgraded but actually did a clean install.I checked the Computer and User accounts on the server and everything seems correct.I made sure both objects were in the same OU.I tried manually and used the wizard. Same error.Is there something inherently wrong with Win 7 joining domains?I've joined domains a thousand times, no problem.Does anyone know why this is happening or is it some bad karma on my part?
