Make sure you have setup your server's DNS Suffix is filled in.
Very important, (also specified in the MOC course Implementing and
Administering MS Windows 2000 Directory 2154A) this is done by right
clicking on your My Computer icon -> Properties -> Network Identification ->
Properties - > More...-> and completing the Primary DNS Suffix for this
Computer information.
Very IMPORTANT -> REBOOT.
Then make sure your DNS is configured with the Forward Zone and the Reverse
as your intended. Should work then.
Also make sure you reboot your server if you reinstall DNS and AD is
installed on the same machine, otherwise reboot your AD server aswell for
good measure.
