Hello all

I am installing Ex2K on a new win2k domain. It installs
fine. It talks to dc which is also DNS. But as soon as the
installation is over or even if I reboot, System Attendant
doesn't start with the error message

From: MSExchangeDSAccess, ID 2064
Process MAD.EXE" (PID=2508). All the remote DS Servers in
use are not responding.

and

from: MSExchangeSA, ID 1005
Unexpected error The specified domain either does not
exist or could not be contacted. Facility: Win32 ID no:
c007054b Microsoft Exchange System Attendant occurred.

I have looked everywhere on Technet, but they only seem to
refer ro dns problems. The dns seems fine, dc is fine,
nothing in the logs. If there was a problem with dc or GC,
then how come ex2k installs fine.

I am getting really desperate. can anybody out there help
this damsel in distress?

Many thanks

Jessica
 
Just make sure, that your DNS settings are pointing to your DNS server and
not enywhere else. Also check your DNS server, that is contains all records
(check them against %systemroot%\system32\config\netlogon.dns). Run dcdiag
/v and netdiag /v on your system for more info.
