My first thought is this is a classic DNS issue. Is you have your ISP's DNS
addresses in your IP properties, this will ALWAYS cause this behavior and
numerous other errors.

Let;s do this:

1. Remove any ISP or any other external (such as your router's IP) out of
ALL your internal machines' IP properties.

2. Just leave the internal DNS only.

3. To achieve efficient Internet resolution, configure a forwarder. If the
Forwarding option is grayed out, delete the Root zone, refresh the console,
and try again. If not sure how, this article will show you these steps:

Now this is assuming that:

1. Your AD DNS Domain name is not a single label name. ("DOMAIN" rather than
the required "domain.com") and that SP4 is installed.

2. That you already have Dynamic Updates set to yes in the zone properties
(in DNS).

3. The Primary DNS Suffix is set to the domain name.

4. No other significant errors are in the logs. If they are, please post the
Event ID #s please.



If not sure of any of these items (besides the forwarding how-to),
*please*post:

1. UNEDITED ipconfig /all of both DCs and one client.
2. The name of your AD DNS domain name (as it shows in your ADUC console)
3. What service pack level these machines are on.

Thanks and hope this all helps.

A netdiag and dcdiag (in the Support Tools directory on the Windows 2000 Cd)
from both domain controllers may give you some clues as well.
