missing dns records such as _msdcs and getting error 5781 on win2k dc
hi,
users cannot join the domain due to dns issues.....the server is missing
records such as _msdcs and getting eventID error 5781 on a win2k dc
how I populate DNS with all the required srv and _msdcs records since all
there is now is one A record for the server
Marc
Re: missing dns records such as _msdcs and getting error 5781 on win2k dc
Restart the Netlogon service on the DC's with missing records.

set the servers DNS server configuration address to 127.0.0.1 as it hosts
DNS and see if this fixes the issue.

Big fat NO - don't do that. He's supposed to put in the
TCP/IP-Properties the own IP-Adress, not the loopback adress. This will
cause issues!

Hi Marc,
Are you really having a single-label domain name (like "mydomain"
instead of "mydomain.com") as dns-domainname?
Is the DNS-Server Service installed and running?
Does the Forward-Lookup-Zone (same as the dns-domainname) exist?
Is it set to allow dynamic updates?
Is there a zone _msdcs.yourdomainname.com, or is _msdcs underneath the
zone yourdomainname.com?
If there's a _msdcs... Zone, is it configured to allow dynamic updates?
If you canged anything above, restart the netlogon-service on all DCs.
Verify that there's a CNAME-Entry underneath _msdcs with a GUID.
