DNS Nightmare - Can't create forward zone

Hi,

I am having trouble with Active Directory and DNS on a new Windows 2003
box. The default entries (_ldap etc.) which are usually created by
netlogon are not there, nor can I manage to create them. I have tried
creating the forward zone from scratch, however I am not able to.

When I try to create a new forward zone, I get the message:

"The zone cannot be replicated to all DNS servers in the (null) Active
Directory domain because the required application directory partition
does not exist. Only Enterprise Administrators have the appropriate
permissions to create an application directory partition."

As I'm logged on as Administrator, which is in the Enterprise Admins
group, this is somewhat worrying!

The message goes on to advise me to try using "Replicate to All Domain
Controllers in the Active Directory Domain" option. When I do this I
get:

"The zone can not be created - The data is invalid"


netdiag /fix gives the following output:

<snip>

Does anyone know what steps I can take to get me back on my feet with
regards to DNS? Just let me know if you want the output from any more
commands.

As I'm sure you can imagine, this lack of DNS is causing me all sorts
of problems with AD, so any advice you can give will be immensely
appreciated!

Thanks,

Berty

the best location)
 
try to create non-ad-integrated zones to see if that makes your DNS
work first. then you can work on other issues.
 
Hi

Follow this steps:

- Point the DNS properties of Dc to the root Dc.

- Type on cmd prompt
dnscmd /clearcache press enter
ipconfig /flushdns press enter

- Go to c:\windows\system32\config and delete the netlogon.dns and the
netlogon.dnb files.

- Create the Dns Zone (At this point no error is shown)

- Point the DNS properties of Dc to itself (Make sure that the server is
cable of resolving the root domain through Forward zones or stub Zones or
Secondary zones)

- Type on cmd prompt
ipconfig /registerdns

- Type - net stop netlogon & net start netlogon (confirm the creation of the
netlogon.dns and the netlogon.dnb files on c:\windows\system32\config )

- Type - Netdiag /fix

- Test replication.

It should be fine now.

Do the default DNS application partitions exist on the DC/DNS server or at
all?
under the ZONE domain.net you should see a subdomain called "DomainDNSZones"
and "ForestDNSZones".
Yes or no?
I no.. then -->
http://www.windowsitpro.com/Article/ArticleID/47199/47199.html

if the DNS app. partition does not exist on that particular DC/DNS server
but it does on others, check if replication is working.

if it does not exist (for some reason) on all DC/DNS servers then recreate
it.

Hi,

Thank you all for your responses.

strongline - I was able to create the DNS zone, but I got the same
error message when I tried to convert the zone to AD-integrated.

Jorges Silva - I followed the recommended steps, however I got the same
error message when I tried to recreate the zone (step four).

Jorges de Almeida Pinto - This is the only DC in the domain, and the
zone does not exist at all. I am currently following the steps in the
windowsitpro.com article - if this meets with no success I shall try
the technet article.

Any more suggestions?

Thank you all for taking the time to respond.

When I try dnscmd /enumdirectorypartitions, I am told there are 0!!!
 
1. you can use ntdsutil to list all naming context you have
2. you can create a brand new user, make "enterprise admin" and "domain
admin" the only containing groups. use this user to create the zones
again. It's likely to fail again, but it rules out the permission issue
3. run "netdom query fsmo" to see that this DC is still the owner of
"domain naming master"
4. reboot the server and try again
5. check any errors in "dcdiag /v" (actually a full Directory Service
version of MPSreport is desired. if you want, you can send it to me)
 
ok... back to basics...

is that DC the domain naming master FSMO?

NETDOM QUERY FSMO to find out who is the domain naming master FSMO?

is it that live DC or is it some other DC that does not exist anymore? if
true, you need to seize the FSMO role ans possibly other roles

yes, true...

I'm just checking, as the possibility is there he could have had another DC
which was the owner of the FSMOs and that DC has been pulled out the AD

Hi

hum... this is strange....

Only one Dc?

Please Try the following steps:

- Make sure that the Dns Settings of the Dc has the IPAddress of the Dc ->
Right Click My Network places choose properties -> Right click local area
connection choose properties -Select TCPIP and choose properties -> Make
sure that in Preferred DNS server you have the Same IP that you have in IP
Address.

- Uninstall Dns - Go to Start -> Settings -> Control Painel -> Add remove
Programs -> Add/Remove Windows Components -> Select Networking Services ->
Choose details -> Unselect Dns -> click Ok -> then Next -> next...

- Go to c:\windows\system32\config and delete the netlogon.dns and the
netlogon.dnb files.

- Go to c:\windows\system32\config and delete the Dns Folder.

- Install Dns - Go to Start -> Settings -> Control Painel -> Add remove
Programs -> Add/Remove Windows Components -> Select Networking Services ->
Choose details -> Select Dns -> click Ok -> then Next -> next...

- Create Dns Zone - Go to Start -> Settings -> Control Painel -> open DNS
console -> create the zone.

- go to the command prompt

- type in the following order:

ipconfig /registerdns (press enter)
net stop netlogon & net start netlogon (press enter confirm the creation
of the netlogon.dns and the netlogon.dnb files on
c:\windows\system32\config )
Netdiag /fix

It should be fine now.

- After this if you still having problems please post the results here for:
netdiag /q

Hi guys,

This is indeed the only DC in the domain. There was another DC, which
have since been removed. FSMO roles were transferred successfully
before the old server was removed. netdom query fsmo confirms that this
server is holding all five roles - let me know if you want me to post
the output for your verification.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling DNS, however I did not
delete netlogon.dns and dns/, so I'll try that now.

Not sure if it's relevant, but now the server keeps shutting down every
hour as it seems to think it is not licensed!

Also, I think this is somewhere near the root of the problem:

When I try to recreate the active directory partition (using ntdsutil)
I am told that I do not have permission to do so, even when I'm logged
on as administrator. I added my personal account to enterprise admins
and had the same problem. Any advice?

Thanks again, I really appreciate the help you guys are giving me!

Berty
 
Update: I've just tried reinstalling DNS, and I'm still having the same
problem. When I try to create the zone, I am told the active directory
partition doesn't exist. I have tried recreating this partition, but am
told I do not have the requisite permissions.

Argh!
 
Hi

Which account are you using to create the Dns Part are you using the
Administrator Account (Member Off Enterprise admins and member of Domain
admins, etc..?

Check:
1. Reboot the server and press F8. Choose Directory Services Restore Mode
from the Menu.
2. Check the physical location of the Winnt\NTDS\ folder.
3. Check the permissions on the \Winnt\NTDS folder.

The default permissions are (confirm this):
Administrators - Full Control
System - Full Control
4. Open a command prompt and run NTDSUTIL to verify the paths for the
NTDS.dit file. These should match the physical structure from Step 2


To check the file paths type the following commands:

NTDSUTIL <enter>
Files <enter>
Info <enter>

The output should look similar to:

Drive Information:

C:\ NTFS (Fixed Drive) free (2.9 Gb) total (3.9 Gb)
D:\ NTFS (Fixed Drive) free (3.6 Gb) total (3.9 Gb)

DS Path Information:

Database : C:\WINNT\NTDS\ntds.dit - 10.1 Mb
Backup dir: C:\WINNT\NTDS\dsadata.bak
Working dir: C:\WINNT\NTDS
Log dir : C:\WINNT\NTDS - 30.0 Mb total
res2.log - 10.0 Mb
res1.log - 10.0 Mb
edb.log - 10.0 Mb
5. Reboot the server to Normal Mode.

Hi Jorge,

I have followed your instructions, and can confirm the following:

c:\windows\ntds exists, and Administrator has Full Control over it and
it's contents, as does System.

Output from ntdsutil seems to match yours:

Drive Information:

C:\ NTFS (Fixed Drive ) free(242.3 Gb) total(271.3 Gb)

DS Path Information:

Database : C:\WINDOWS\NTDS\ntds.dit - 14.1 Mb
Backup dir : C:\WINDOWS\NTDS\dsadata.bak
Working dir: C:\WINDOWS\NTDS
Log dir : C:\WINDOWS\NTDS - 50.0 Mb total
res2.log - 10.0 Mb
res1.log - 10.0 Mb
edb00003.log - 10.0 Mb
edb00002.log - 10.0 Mb
edb.log - 10.0 Mb

Server is now back to normal mode, but giving the same problem. Are
there any further steps you can recommend, in addition to the
impressive amount of help you've given me so far?

Thanks,

Berty

1750286d-b0a6-4633-a9d0-63967c9a5fcb._msdcs.mydomain.net could not be
resolved to an
IP address. Check the DNS server, DHCP, server name, etc
Although the Guid DNS name

(1750286d-b0a6-4633-a9d0-63967c9a5fcb._msdcs.mydomain.net)

couldn't be resolved, the server name (ag-dbsvr.mydomain.net)

resolved to the IP address (100.200.52.145) and was pingable.
Check

that the IP address is registered correctly with the DNS
server.
