I am using a single Server 2008 Standard Edition as a DC with DNS. The DNS
service stops working frequently (every few hours). There is nothing in the
DNS log indicating a problem. I can restart the service and it works for a
time, then stops. The only symptom I have been able to find are entries in
the Windows Applications Log:
Faulting application dns.exe, version 6.0.6001.18081, time stamp 0x4842018e,
faulting module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6001.18000, time stamp 0x4791adec,
exception code 0xc0000374, fault offset 0x00000000000a6e97, process id 0xf20,
application start time 0x01c8ff2c1cdf4151.
Faulting application dns.exe, version 6.0.6001.18081, time stamp 0x4842018e,
faulting module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6001.18000, time stamp 0x4791adec,
exception code 0xc0000374, fault offset 0x00000000000a6e97, process id 0xf58,
application start time 0x01c8ff340bed7d32.
There are also entries in the Administrative Events log:
The DNS Server service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 2 time(s).
The following corrective action will be taken in 300000 milliseconds:
Restart the service.
There are entries in the DNS log just after each of these error messages
indicating the DNS service has started.
The entries occurred a few minutes apart (2 min 21 sec).
I detect the problem when I try an action requiring access to the Active
Directory which fails.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this annoyance will be appreciated.
