Error: Specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted DFS Namespace
I am trying to create a namespace in DFS management on 2008 r2 , i am getting that error. Error: Specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted. I did have some trouble with dns after domoteing a DC, DNS thought it was still a name server and gc, etc.
Dont know what i am doing wrong now, When i pung \\domainname.suffix i get the new dc's ip address but DFS management will bomb out instantly after creating the namespace.
Any ideas
PS We went from a 2003 r2 domain level, to a 2008 r2 domain level. Old dc Windows Server 2003 Enterprise 64 bit, new Standard 2008 R2 64

Time Provider NtpClient: This machine is configured to use the domai
n hierarchy to determine its time source, but it is the AD PDC emulator for the
domain at the root of the forest, so there is no machine above it in the domain
hierarchy to use as a time source. It is recommended that you either configure a
reliable time service in the root domain, or manually configure the AD PDC to s
ynchronize with an external time source. Otherwise, this machine will function a
s the authoritative time source in the domain hierarchy. If an external time sou
rce is not configured or used for this computer, you may choose to disable the N
tpClient.

i got the name space created after adding the _msdcs.glenhaven.domain zone to dns since the other was greyed, out but now after the error about i have all users cannot log on. Slow respponse times on dns , all around Nightmare
IT's the time service and there is probably a skew between clients and server
PDC will not function and no logons will occur until resolved. (manually configure the AD PDC to synchronize with an external time source)
Ensure the time service is running, and follow that guide i posted for external NTP timesource and make sure it is set to "Automatic" via services.msc
After you have done that
w32tm /resync /rediscover
then
w32tm /query /source

Hey all. I had the same error in my lab environment. My recent changes were adding a DC, moving FSMO roles, changing forest and domain functional levels, then moving the FSMO roles and functional levels back, and then decommissioning that DC I added.
Anyhow, what resolved this for me was running the following command:
dfsutil /spcflush
dfsutil /pktflush
After that I was able to access DFS Management for the namespace.

BitBro's Solution is what worked for me.
dfsutil /spcflush
dfsutil /pktflush
It should return the IP addresses of all the Domain Controllers.
If you see the old DC's IP address then you'll need to do a cleanup of the old DNS records in the following locations:
Forward lookup zone
Reverse lookup zone
_msdcs zone
also check the Name Servers tab on your DNS console.
