controller? Now, i am trying to add an additional domain
controller but i always meet a problem that the existing
domain controller not found though i can choose the
domain from the browse button, what might it happen?
Thanks a lot.
 
Probably DNS problem on the new conputer you are trying to promote. Make
sure it is using the existing DC for DNS lookup. Make sure it is NOT using
"lmhost file"

Be sure you can ping the first DC by name before you run
DCPROMO. If you cannot then the other email you received
from Deji is correct in that there is a DNS problem.

Name resolution is one of the most common problems on my
network. Luckily they are easy to fix and Microsoft puts
out alot of very good documentation on the subject via
their Knowledge base.
