| | cannot add Windows vista Business computer to domain I am unable to add the company's new computer to the domain. I attempt to use the netwrok ID wizard, however, i continue to get an error after the 3rd screen. The error is: "your computer could not be joined to the domain because the following error has occurred: An attampt to resolve the DNS name of a DC in the domain being joined has failed. Please verify this client is configured to reach a DNS server that can resolve DNS names in the target domain." Any help or advisement would be highly appreciated |

| | Re: cannot add Windows vista Business computer to domain Make sure the Vista computer is using the correct DNS server. It should be pointing to an Active Directory DNS server and no other ones. -- Kerry Brown Microsoft MVP - Shell/User http://www.vistahelp.ca "bradley" <bradley@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:7BB501BD-D19E-4A1F-87DD-2B66960AD274@microsoft.com...

| | Re: cannot add Windows vista Business computer to domain I had the exact same problem. What I did was the following: Quote: > Opened the TCP/IP Properties of my network adaptor > Under "Use the following DNS server addresses" enter the IP address Now when you try to add the Windows Vista machine it should work. -- dgobat ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dgobat's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/124487.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/windows-v...ork/761207.htm http://forums.techarena.in |
