oui, there are 2 subnets for historical reasons, and a
dhcp server device in one of the network of which the
scope cannot be changed practically.

also, 2 subnets : for want of more security

both DNS entry set to the my DNS server IP. Done

-----Original Message-----
Hi Gazebo,

Are you working in different subnets (because of 2 nics)? Can you elaborate
on that?

About DNS: properties of your servernic, TCP/IP, DNS should be pointing to
your server-IP (the one that has DNS-server running).
So DNS on both nics should point to server-IP?
Get it?

The reason I need 2 nic in the pdc : I want to make both
network sharing resources on the pdc. I do not have a
spare gateway computer.
Your suggestion of having the nic dns entry as the self
ip. I could not work out. Because the mailserver seems to
be unable to resolve email address once I had it set like
that.

Gazebo
-----Original Message-----
Why does the other DC have 2 nics?
DNS on all nics should point to the server-IP.
ISP DNS-numbers should be set in tab Forwarders of your DNS-server.

Marina,

I could not find event ID 0028, but 4319 - source NetBT.
In the message I found the IP reported. It is my DNS.
And
I could not find any one in conflict. I am using CHI
version so I do not include the whole message here.

The nbtstat -n, as instructed by the event message to
locate the conflict, is attached below :-

Marina,

I still could not understand your DNS field setting
for
the NIC. Do you mean I should set the DNS field to my
DNS
server IP and let the forward tab isp-dns entry to do
the
resolution?

Also, at last, I found out the problem. I had an
invalid
entry in the lmhosts when render the server unable to
local the PDC!!! After I correct it, the netlogon
error
is gone. Also, there seems to be no more error login
from
my outlook.

That is interesting. I want to know more about
explanation
of nbtstat as there is still some warning message
like
name conflicts, etc.
Your help out there is very much appreciated!

Marina,

We do maintain a WINS inhouse. 3.110. but for

use
only. We do not use inhouse DNS for name
resolution.
All
our mails go thru the Internet.

Also, the local address is fixed, no dhcp is used.
so, I should set all the DNS address to the server

or
my DNS ip?

Hi,

Where is the 192.168.3.110 coming from (WINS)? It
should
be the same as your
server-IP. I don't see DNS on your nic. It
should be
your
server-IP.
DNS on your external nic should be your server-
IP.
The
ISP-DNS-numbers
should be set in tab Forwarders of your DNS-
server.
In DHCP-server you should have options 003, 006
and
015
and if you have W9x,
ME or NT4-clients, also options 044 and 046
(0x8).

Why does the other DC have 2 nics?
DNS on all nics should point to the server-IP.
ISP DNS-numbers should be set in tab Forwarders of your

Hi Gazebo,

Are you working in different subnets (because of 2 nics)?
Can you elaborate
on that?

About DNS: properties of your servernic, TCP/IP, DNS
should be pointing to
your server-IP (the one that has DNS-server running).
So DNS on both nics should point to server-IP?
Get it?

Make sure that the box only points to the DNS server that is hosting the zone for your AD. Do not point at any other DNS servers.
Also, a box should only have ONE default gateway. If you have internal networks that this server needs access to, you will need
to use static routes to get there. Two default gateways will cause many headaches!!

also, 2 subnets : for want of more security

both DNS entry set to the my DNS server IP. Done

-----Original Message-----
Hi Gazebo,

Are you working in different subnets (because of 2 nics)?
Can you elaborate
on that?

About DNS: properties of your servernic, TCP/IP, DNS
should be pointing to
your server-IP (the one that has DNS-server running).
So DNS on both nics should point to server-IP?
Get it?

Your suggestion of having the nic dns entry as the self

like
that.
