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!

\\FQDN Does Not Open \\PDC, How to fix in AIX BIND DNS?

Asked by The_Computer_Guru_777 in Windows 2003 Server, IBM AIX Unix, Domain Name Service (DNS)

Tags: Microsoft, Windows Server, 2003, 2003 (Native Mode) Domain, unix bind DC domain controller dns \\domain name resolve FQDN

At my work where I am a network administrator I can not get \\(domain name) to open the shares on the primary domain controller. We are installing some third party software that integrates with AD and requires this to work.

I believe the reason this doesn't work is because our primary DNS servers our BIND 8 Unix Servers.

Problem Summary:
\\FQDN does not open \\PDC.FQDN

My first attempt to fix the problem was a CNAME that points FQDN to pdc.FQDN. This did not help the problem, but it did create additional issues by redirecting our MX record to the PDC.

------- Notes / Details -----------
Domain: Native Mode 2003 Domain, with three domain controllers.
PDC: Windows 2003 Standard domain controller
DNS: AIX running BIND 8
