On the problematic client machine -- can you actually resolve the DNS name
of the domain? Test that with nslookup. You have to configure the domain
controller's IP address as the preferred DNS server on the client.

Cheers,
Florian

Re: Domain Join Problem

Hello abdul.sheikh,
This is normally DNS related issue. Look into your dns setup etc

Re: Domain Join Problem

Hello abdul.sheikh,

Sounds like DNS settings, please post an unedited ipconfig /all from the
client and the DC/DNS server, so that we can compare them.

Best regards
