All:
I have been looking for a solution to this, and all I am able to come
up with are the obvious things. This problem is not so obvious.
This is a file server in my domain:
Windows 2000 IP Configuration
Host Name . . . . . . . . . . . . : NTS-NP-FILES
Primary DNS Suffix . . . . . . . :
Node Type . . . . . . . . . . . . : Hybrid
IP Routing Enabled. . . . . . . . : No
WINS Proxy Enabled. . . . . . . . : No
DNS Suffix Search List. . . . . . : plinius.net
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 3:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : plinius.net
Description . . . . . . . . . . . : Compaq Network Teaming V
ort
Physical Address. . . . . . . . . : 00-02-A5-ED-8E-C4
DHCP Enabled. . . . . . . . . . . : No
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.100.36.1
Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.240.0
Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.100.32.1
DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.100.36.3
10.0.212.15
Primary WINS Server . . . . . . . : 10.100.36.3
Secondary WINS Server . . . . . . : 10.1.4.1
As you can see I am missing my Primary DNS Suffix. I have added
connection-specific DNS suffix information just to try and get some
names resolved, but it will not update my DNS server with a record.
10.100.36.3 is my primary DNS server, and it's on site. I also have a
secondary DNS server off-site at another location.
The first time I did /registerdns, I got an error in the system log:
Event ID 5789 - Attempt to update DNS host name of the computer object
in the Active Directory failed. The updated value was 'NTS-NP-FILES'.
The following error occurred: The parameter is incorrect.
So I check the possible issues I was able to find on this event ID,
and I have none of them. Since I added Connection-Specific data, I no
longer get the 5789 Event when doing a /registerdns, but I still get
no record in the DNS servers, and no Primary Domain Suffix info.
I'm just not sure how to proceed from here. Any tips are appreciated.
This is a Win 2000 box with SP 2.
Thanks!
