We have a mix of 3 Windows 2000 DCs and 2 Windows 2003 DCs. Each W2K DC is
located at it's own site and the two W2K3 DCs are on a fourth site. One of
the Win 2000DC has the five FSMO roles and another Windows 2000 DC is the
only DNS that has scanenging enabled for stale records. ...

Good afternoon all.
We use Cisco CNR and would like to move it off there to utilize the
DNS and DHCP service on Microsoft Windows 2003 Server.  Is there an
easy way to accomplish this as opposed to typing all this information

I have an old server that I can till ping by name and when I do a nslookup of
the iP address it returns the old name.  This old server hasn't been in use
in years.  Another server has this iP address.  I can't find it in DNS or
Wins.  Where else could it be?

(Sorry if wrong NG)
Does anyone know what is going wrong with the PC below. Notice how all pings
are 'resolved' to "??"  and names cannot be resolved. This is only a problem
on 1 PC (i.e. the server is ok for other PCs).

I have 2 domains and 3 domain controllers.
One domain for our voice network(Cisco windows 2000 server unity server with
Exchange) with one of the DCs and integrated dns and it also has an
integrated reverse lookup zone for our data network.

Hi to all. My issue is as follows:
I am running on Windows XP SP2 with the latest security patches.
When i ping a destination by name it takes aproximately 10-20 seconds to
resolve the name before the actual pinging progresses.

When I setup windows 2000 server, I use domain name as "xxxxxx.com" (x
is letter).  Now, we found that this name has registered by other
people.
Now, we got problems: the server as well as clien computers continue

I have a single WIN2000 server running DNS.  All has been well but I noticed
on all of my clients errors in the event viewer.  Userenv - (windows cannot
determine the user or computer name. The RPC server is unavailable) and
Autoenrollment (failed to contact active directory) ...

Today, one of our internal DNS servers began reporting every host resolution
as an address that has been traced to somewhere in China. We are actively
trying to figure out what occurred. Replacing our actual domain with "test",
here is what we saw in nslookup or regular pings.

I have WS A with LAN and Wireless connection to different subnets. LAN
is primary connection. I ping WS A from from WS B and it resolves to

We have a single domain with 3 -4 domain controllers. We have one standard
server2000 called RC1 and a newly built Dbserver1 of windows 2003 in a

Hi - I  had 2 DC's.  1 DC went down because of a hardware failure.  The other
DC took over.  I added DNS to the DC running.  I had to reboot the server.

I tried to just go to a dos prompt and still get the blue screen.
