The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Name resolution is not functional. _ldap._tcp.<mydomain>.co.nz. failed on the DNS server

Asked by TomMonkey in Windows 2003 Server, Active Directory, Domain Name Service (DNS)

Tags: resolution, name

Good morning experts,

I have Windows 2003 SP2 with SBS 2003.

We are getting an error in the event logs, NTDS KCC 1925.  This led me to http://207.46.196.114/windowsserver/en/library/5586ecc0-924b-4f08-800b-9fd6eef056191033.mspx?mfr=true which told me to go to: http://207.46.196.114/windowsserver/en/library/5586ecc0-924b-4f08-800b-9fd6eef056191033.mspx?mfr=true

This page told me to run a basic dns test: dcdiag /test:dns /s:SourceDomainControllerName /DnsBasic

Which I did and here are the results:

The article told me to look for warnings, which there are, but then it goes a bit vague and just tells me to fix them.  Does anyone know how to fix this warning please?  The IP address it is refering to is a secondary DC that has just been promoted.

Thank you

Tom
