There's a new Os X patch out that fixes alot of these issues. Win 2K
requires SP 3.
Check out Apple's support site for more info.

Hi Tony!
The first message, "Domain Controller not found", should be of more concern
and probably lends itself to your problem.
AD requires DNS. When a domain controller can not find a domain controller,
this tells me that DNS may be improperly configured or that your domain is
having problems.
Check for descrepencies within your DNS and fix these. If AD is completely
new to your network, then you may want to verify which servers have which
FSMO roles for further trouble-shooting.
Hope this helps! bill

Will check the Apple site, but I think you are right in suspecting naming in
the Directory.

Hi Tony!
I found the following article number 258503 in Microsoft's Knowledgebase
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B258503
It's titled "DNS Registration Errors 5788 and 5789 When DNS Domain and
Active Directory Domain Name Differ".
Although I believe your problem is DNS related, it may not necessarily be a
DNS configuration problem as I suspected, but rather a simple server or
domain name misconfiguration.
And I guess we still need to see if this is or isn't related to your Mac
Services problem. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
However, as I noted earlier, he should take a look at Apple's site as they
seem to have fixed most if not all the problems interoperating within Macs
and Windoes.

The DNS domain and Active Directory domain are the same. Could WINS be
involved?
I noticed today that the WINS entries for the DC are the same as for the
member servers. SHouldn't there be another entry for DC's? Or is that the
wrong tree to be sniffing around?

Hi Tony!
I don't have an AD setup to be able to research what you're seeing and
correctly identify how things should appear, so I've asked for assistance
from some other MVPs who specialize in AD and/or domain server setups.
Let's see what responses we get from them.
Let's take a step back for a second here.
Let's check for a few things:
1) Who is our DC pointed to for DNS.
2) If you right click on my computer, then properties. Please there go to
the Network Identification tab. Can you tell us both what you see in "Full
computer name" as well as "domain name"?
Thanks!

In the event log, the Netlogon service checks itself before starting, and
the event implies that it thinks itself authoritative for the Domain.
The Domain name of the DC and the affected (services won't start) member
servers is the AD domain. THe primary DNS server for the affected servers is
also the dc. WINS too.
Do you, or any respondent, know how to check the entries in
_msdcs.domain.lan, to make sure that 20digit id aliased to the DC is naming
the object correctly?
THanks, Tony

The registry on the PDCEmulator, still held the former (mucked up) fqdn of
the rogue (now offline) DC. Not on Microsoft's kb articles, Makes ya wonder
if they're holding some fixes for an easy $245 on the phone.
The key, is under HKLM/System/CCS/NTDS/Parameters/ values for source server,
and 2 replication values. Edited the source server one, and made the
remaining dc the source, removed the values for the replication items with
the fqdn of the downed server. Rebooted just to make sure.
