DNS Error in Win 2008 R2

I have Windows 2008R2 server I recently added to our domain as a DC/DNS/GC server. I keep getting this DNS error in my event viewer(1014) that says:

Name resolution for the name _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.Domain.org timed out after none of the configured DNS servers responded.

-I have multiple AD/DNS servers
-The server is pointing to itself as a primary DNS server
-I have disabled IPV6
-It does have a static IP
-Registered DNS

DNS seems to be working. What is causing my error

First question, can you actually look up _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.Domain.org using dig or nslookup?

Can you query for it and get a response from the server generating the error as well as an unrelated client?
Hi,

Please make sure to add this servers IP as a Primary DNS and ISP / Public DNS as secondary.

It is not critical as long as you have a working DNS but you might want to try adding your ISP domain name in the IPv4 DNS properties "domain suffix for this connection" field.

Hope this helps.

Why would you even suggest this?  The domain controller has no need for this and should only be aware of the ISPs domain name as a place to forward DNS queries

I get this when I do an NSLOOKUP

C:\Windows\system32>nslookup _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.domain.org
Server:  server.domain.org
Address:  XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

Name:    _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.domain.org

C:\Windows\system32>

The servers IP is set as the primary DNS
OK, so the server can successfully query for the record

Can you post the full error message?

I see but I have 6 other DNS servers running with the same type of config and none of those produce that error.

OK thanks for the info. Let me try those and see. I did have a second NIC which was not disabled. Let me go through the other settings.
It turns out that my NIC does not have any of those features to turn off. Let me try updating my driver for starters.
There was an updated driver but no change. I tried running powershell commands to turn off some of the features but that did not help.
The problem seems to have cleared up after a few reboots. Thanks for the help.
