Hi,

Guys i deployed domain controller in an environment of approx 300 pcs, when i start to join users in domain. i come across some errors, which are as follows:
1) some times when joining domain, the error "the domain controller does not exist or could not be contacted" comes and pc is unable to join domain.
2) after joining domain, when i try to change the user password, then the user hangs and password changes after taking a lot of time. usually 15 to 20 minutes.

The computer is taking all the policies i applied in default domain policy.

Kindly give me suggestions and share your experiences.

Regards,
Kashif Mehmood

I think your best bet is to remove the "Domain Users" group local group system users, and simply add the specific user you want to access. Better yet, construct a domain group and reinstate the domain user domain on the way to that group - that method you can easily add and remove users to the list of authorized users later on. Create a new group SA Group ensures that users want are part of that group. Hope this helps you, thank you.
