-

i have dev domain has been neglected , needs brought acceptable level.  here state of domain before started.

- windows 2003 r1 single domain. 

- exchange 2003 sp2 running dc services

- dns installed not configured on the exchange server.

- dc fsmo role holder/dns server crashed , irrecoverable.

 

here did.

- on exchange server, i recreated domain dns zone and stopped/started the netlogon service the (_msdcs, _sites, etc... folders show up). services on exchange server.

- seized fsmo roles , put them on exchange server.

- went ntdsutil , removed dead domain controller's data ad.

- updated ad schema 2008 and promoted member windows server 2008 r2 server domain controller.

- installed installed dns services on new domain controller.  dns zone exchange server replicated new dc , new entries show on both.

- moved fsmo roles new domain controller.

everything point seems fine.  run issue when try add reverse zone.  dreaded "the zone cannot created. there server failure" error.  tried both new dc , exchange server no luck.  don't see in event logs jumps out @ me.  do, however, notice @ console of dc, can't connect dns service on exchange server.  same true reverse.

please let me know if have suggestions.

 


hello,

as had problems crashed dc please upload:

ipconfig /all >c:\ipconfig.txt [from each dc/dns server]
dcdiag /v /c /d /e /s:dcname >c:\dcdiag.txt
repadmin /showrepl dc* /verbose /all /intersite >c:\repl.txt  ["dc* place holder starting name of dcs if begin same (if more 1 dc exists)]
dnslint /ad /s "dcipaddress" (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321045)


output become large, don't post them thread, please use windows sky drive (skydrive.live.com) [with open access!] , add link here. /e in dcdiag scans complete forest, better run on cob.

please keep in mind not recommended run exchange on dc, not microsoft.
