Event Type:      Warning
Event Source:      NTDS Replication
Event Category:      DS RPC Client
Event ID:      2088
Date:            9/8/2011
Time:            6:01:59 PM
User:            NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON
Computer:      CEFM-HMO
Description:
Active Directory could not use DNS to resolve the IP address of the source domain controller listed below. To maintain the consistency of Security groups, group policy, users and computers and their passwords, Active Directory successfully replicated using the NetBIOS or fully qualified computer name of the source domain controller.
 
Invalid DNS configuration may be affecting other essential operations on member computers, domain controllers or application servers in this Active Directory forest, including logon authentication or access to network resources.
 
You should immediately resolve this DNS configuration error so that this domain controller can resolve the IP address of the source domain controller using DNS.
 
Alternate server name:
 DBSERVER
Failing DNS host name:
 8b3c9615-02bb-4fd5-aef2-be94756dd686._msdcs.CEFM-DOM.local
