[Samba] Failover

[Chan Min Wai]

Hi Sandbox,

Meaning that you have a dns issue...
Which DNS module do you use?
Internal or bind?

Anyway use your RAT from windows.
Open DNS Administrator
Check on the NS (name server) on your Domain Reals

Check if only the DC1 is register as the NS and not DC2
And add them in if it is missing...

You will also need to check other zones like _msdc.* and etc

I found this problem recently when a win2k8 join my DC..

Thank You.
