Thanks for the feedback

Ok, I fixed the resolv on the first server which now uses 192.168.1.206.

Fixed, now nslookup kerberos lookup returns 192.168.1.206 on both servers.

I've always been using this "solution" for the second DC, as I found on a guide from tranquilit. I changed it to resemble the one on first server.

Unfortunately, the JOIN command behaves exactly like before. It hangs for some time after
NTLMSSP Sign/Seal - Initialising with flags:
then fails:
ERROR(runtime): uncaught exception - (3221225653, '{Device Timeout} The specified I/O operation on %hs was not completed before the time-out period expired.')


I ran the join command more than once, and in one occasion it went further on but failed later:

Starting GENSEC submechanism gssapi_krb5
GSSAPI credentials for Administrator at WDC.DOMAIN.IT will expire in 35996 secs
gensec_gssapi: NO credentials were delegated
