Hey
From the workstation, I can ping the server's ip, and the server name, but I
can't ping the domain name.
I can log on to the domain from the workstation, this ws I added to the
domain earlier. When I now try to add a ws to the domain I cant get the
domain....
Thanks for any help.....

i don't understand why you would want to ping the domain name... but in
order to do so, you should resolve the name using the correct suffix

example... domain.com / domain.pri

normally when you can't join a domain, a simple fix is to re-register the ws
to a workgroup... reboot, and then try joining the domain... if you can ping
servers and use the proxy (if you have one) for internet access, you should
be able to join.
 
I'am not sure what you try to do

but to get information to your domain I would us
nslookup
or "net view
 
Follow the DNS install process on your server and within
the install process it explains what to look for if it is
working properly. Is this being use as an active directory
server? DNS MUST be properly configured. Use the event log
under DNS to isolate the issue if possible.
