Can ping second server

Hi, I have two PC with Server 2003. I have The following settings connecting wireless: IP:

Server01 Conecting Wireless IP:192.168.69.134 Subnet Maks: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.69.1
Active Directory Domain Name: AP.com
Netbios Domain: AP

Server02 Phisically Connected to the router IP:192.168.69.133 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.69.1

- I will like to add Server02 to AP.com domain, but I can't because I can't communicate with server01
I tried to ping from both server, but I'm getting no reply. I can ping the router on both server (Router IP Address is 192.168.69.1). Can anybody help me with this issue. Thanks

Is the firewall on? It blocks ICMP by default.

On the system you want to join to the domain, make sure the primary DNS is set to the DC.

There is no firewall on the router. If you talk about the server, where can I ook for that?

Firewall was on, on both PC.

Then that's why you can't ping each other. Just do what I set with the DNS and you should be able to join the domain.

And yes, when I was talking about the firewall, I was talking about the PC. Your systems are on the same physical and logical segment. They don't even go through the router to talk to each other.

I was able to ping after I turned firewall off, thanks Royal, where can I set DNS to DC. I went into Manage server and then I hit Manage DNS Server, but I don't know where to go after that. Now I can't remote in.

On the machine that is not part of the domain yet. Go into the IP Properties where you specified the IP Address. Change the Primary DNS Address to be the IP of your existing DC.

I already did that. I type in the 192.168.69.134. I was abe to add server02 to the server01 domain, but now I can't remote into the PC.

Looks like royal might complete the whole lab here.

Way to go royal

Yeap he did, thanks. I will figure out why I can't remote desktop into server02 from server01.

RDP is off by default. You need to turn that on for it to work. You will then "automatically" be granted permissions to RDP in using either the Administrator account or anybody from the Remote Desktop Users group account.

And just an FYI, when RDP'ing into a Domain Controller, only Administrators are allowed by default.

To turn on Remote Desktop, Right-click My Computer, click Properties, and then click the Remote tab. Turn on Remote Desktop by selecting the check box Allow users to remotely connect to this computer.
