DNS Trouble Help Please!!!!
I am trying to set up a DC with a child domain in the forest. But as you can see from the text below that is was I keep running into. But the funny thing is though I am able to join the parent's domail, so shouldn't I be able to join with dcpromo?
If someone could please help me out on this one that would be great. If you are wondering what I am doing, I am trying to set up some labs at home So I can finish up on my labs.
SO here it goes.
The domain name headquarters might be a NetBIOS domain name. If this is the case, verify that the domain name is properly registered with WINS.
If you are certain that the name is not a NetBIOS domain name, then the following information can help you troubleshoot your DNS configuration.
The following error occurred when DNS was queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate a domain controller for domain headquarters:
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.headquarters
Common causes of this error include the following:
- The DNS SRV records required to locate a domain controller for the domain are not registered in DNS. These records are registered with a DNS server automatically when a domain controller is added to a domain. They are updated by the domain controller at set intervals. This computer is configured to use DNS servers with following IP addresses:
192.168.1.1
- One or more of the following zones do not include delegation to its child zone:
headquarters
. (the root zone)

Are you doing this under Windows 2000 Server? If so I have run into problems with the DNS portion of the install creating a root zone "." instead of creating the zone you need. Go into your DNS MMC and if you see a forward lookup zone that just shows "." without the quotes, then delete it and create the forward lookup zone you need.
