Good Day,

The automatic root update mechanism is enabled on Windows Server 2008 and later, but not on Windows Server 2003.

Update your root certificates on your 2003 server.

Windows Update Catalog

look for “root update” or the KB article for the Root Certificate Program, “KB931125”.

Thank you, but the dcdiag above was from a 2008 DC

Did you want me to try to update my root certs on my tor-db02 box (Server 2003)
Sorry. Yes, you should try to update root certs on your 2008 DC

here is what I am getting for those roots

b.root-servers.net has address 192.228.79.201
l.root-servers.net has address 199.7.83.42
No luck, at least not all the way through.
Please review the new DCDiag /test:dns

can you send the results of ipconfig /all from your 2008 DC?

Appears like you have invalid DNS forwarders listed
sure thing, here you go:

Ok, I think we are almost there.

What does ipconfig /all from the 2003 server contain?

The issue description says:
I am unable to login to my domain controller from a member (server 2003)

Could you please elaborate?
Are you trying to RDP into the domain controller from the member server or are you trying to logon to the member server using the domain credentials?
What is the error message that you are seeing?
Thank you kindly!!!! You, sir, were great!
