DTCTester error, can anyone help
Hi
I have 2 SQL 2005 Servers which are both Windows Server 2003 and both running MSDTC yet I am having issues getting the MSDTC to work.
When testing the MSDTC connection using dtctester I get the following error.

Error:

b. Bad WINS/DNS entries

c. Misconfigured network

d. Misconfigured SQL Server machine that has multiple netcards.

Has anyone had this problem before?

Who is Participating?
You may want to verifiy the configurations of the DTC on both servers. Make sure that TIP is enabled.
Have you tried DTCPing to verifiy that the 2 DTC services can successfully communicate?

Thanks for the suggestion, I have run DTCping on both servers but don't understand the output, can anyone enlighten me please? Attached the output below.

Thank you.
This results indicate that MSDTC on both servers can communicate.
Also, from the DTCping output, I noticed that one server is running Win2K3 with no SP and the other is running Win2K3 SP1. I believe there are updates to MSDTC in SP2 that effect its operation. I know its a cop out, I would recommend that SP2 + hotfixes be deployed.
Also, were these 2 servers cloned or ghosted during install? If so, you will want to uninistall msdtc and reinstall it.
(msdtc -uninstall, then msdtc -install)
