There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request.

I have added a new windows 2003 server to the network, It is configured as a domain controller and DNS server for a total of 2 dns servers on the same network.
The new comain "cityhall.int" shows up fine on the network and i can see and access the other domain "Cityofabbeville,int" but the cityofabbeville.int can see cityhall.int but can not access it.
When I try to join a computer to cityhall.int it is unable to locate the domain.

I notices the following error in the system event log. There are no apparent DNS event issues


The Security System detected an authenticaton error for the server ldap/W3kABB1.cityhall.int.
The failure code from the authentication protocal Kerberos was "There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request.

I followed each insrtuction to the letter, my problem stabds resolved..
IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR ANSWERS, I wished to add a little additional information.

I was just bringing a new domain on line and ran through the above steps. So, my memory has been refreshed.
The above information tells you how to register the DNS Host A and SRV records for your new server.
1) Register the DNS records
2) Register the SRV records

3) Then, it tells you how to prevent a multihomed computer from having DNS problems by applying a patch and removing records of the improper NIC.
___________________________________________________________________________________

Once the above information is followed, you may wish to force replicate your information from the PDC Emulator to the new DC. Replicating the Host A records and SRV records will allow you to share those records with other DNS servers that may have just come on line. If you do not force replicate from one server to another, it will happen automatically. However, you may have to wait up to eight hours per server. So, you may wish to replicate from your PDC emulator to the new DNS server.

So, here is step 4):
To force replicate, and save yourself time:
a) go to the Active Directory Sites and Services Snapin
b) navigate to Default First Site>>Servers
c)Pick the server you want to replicate TO and expand it
d)right click what is showing (NTDS site?) and select "replicate now"
Glad things are working for you mickeyshelley1:
