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! |

Asked by justarookie in Operating Systems Miscellaneous
We have a nt 4.0 domain with a mix of nt/2000/xp clients. We have a wins server and a bdc. Lately win 2000 clients cannot locate the domain controller unless we edit the lmhosts file on the client to point at the wins server which is the pdc as well. all has worked well for years but all of a sudden the win 2000 clients cannot locate the pdc or domain. a hundred clients so far have been affected. it is very frustrating as nothing has changed on the client side or server. what ports are needed for authentication to a pdc and what services are required other than netlogon, workstation, server and tcp ip helper and computer browser? also, we have a 2000 member server as our dhcp server. we have checked the subnet mask and it is correct. i am stumped and hope someone in the team can solve this. the primary wins server is the pdc as well and ipconfig /all shows this to be so.
