New NIC and DNS reporting event 414

I have Smal Business Server 2000. My hunt started with the fact that the exchange store wold not mount and I read some articles about that possibly being tied to DNS. Looking at the DNS log I see a warning with Event ID 414, "You have a single label domain name" and that is not true. Prior to the new NIC I never received that worning. When I stop and start the DNA service I get the Stop event reported, a Warning of event 414, and then the event that DNS started. My SOA and NS records for that zone are missing the domain suffix. I manually adjusted those records and reloaded the zone and they get reset back to the values missing the domain suffix. I am using an active directory-integrated zone. I have checked the registry keys mentioned in article 257623 and run the script as well. I still get the same error.

Netdiag fails on the LDAP Test and gives a warning that the default SPN registration for 'HOST/SYNACT1' is missing on DC 'SYNACT1". [FATAL] The default SPNs are not properly registered on any DCs.
ipconfig /all values are...
Host Name: SYNACT1
Primary DNS Suffix: SynACT.net
Node Type: Hybrid
IP Routing Enable: Yes
WINS Proxy Enabled: No
DNS Suffix Search List: SynACT.net

AD Domain Name is SynACT.net

Forward lookup zone is synact.net and my Allow dynamic updates? setting is set to "Only Secure Updates".

The rest of the ipconfig /all would help.
What is the IP of the DNS address?
IT should use ONLY it own IP for DNS, never your ISP's DNS.

If Exchange services don't start it is usually because the Global Catalog
cannot be contacted.
If you run this command it should return the IP of your Global Catalog
server:
nslookup gc._msdcs.<dnsforestrootname>

Also try running nediag /fix
post the results from netdiag /test:dns /v

Hi Kevin,
ipconfig /all values are...
Host Name: SYNACT1
Primary DNS Suffix: SynACT.net
Node Type: Hybrid
IP Routing Enable: Yes
WINS Proxy Enabled: No
DNS Suffix Search List: SynACT.net

Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 2
Connection-specific DNS Suffix: (it is blank)
Description: Linksys
Physical Address: 00-0c-41-ed-cf-1f
DHCP Enabled: No
IP Address: 192.168.1.2
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.1.1
DNS Servers: 192.168.1.2
Primary WINS Server: 192.168.1.2

PPP Adapter RAS Server (Dial In) Interface:
Connection-specific DNS Suffix: (it is blank)
Physical Address: 00-53-45-00-00-00
DHCP Enabled: No
IP Address: 172.16.1.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.255
Default Gateway: (it is blank)
DNS Servers: 127.0.0.1

The IP address of the DNS server is 192.168.1.2
I did have the DNS server my ISP as a second DNS srever
but have since removed it.

nslookup gc._msdcs.synact.net yields:
*** Can't find server name for address 192.168.1.2:
Non-existent domain
Server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1

Name: gc._msdcs.synact.net
Addresses: 192.168.16.2, 191.168.1.2
I am not sure where the 192.168.16.2 came from. The 191.
address is familiar to me because my problems started
when I tried to change the base ip on our router to
191.168.1.1 and set the server to 191.168.1.2. I have
since gone back to the 192.168.1.1 ip address for the
router.

I tried running nediag /fix and I still get an eror on
ldap that I posted last time.
I will post the results from netdiag /test:dns /v in post
sfter this one because I am using terminal server to get
to the troubled server and can't cut and paste.
Thank you,
Mark

Thanks for the posting, the problem is RRAS and your dial-in interface. You
are going to need to make some registry entries and create some records.
