Problem1:
I have a Win Svr 2003 St Sp2 (svr A), and a Win Svr 2008 R2 Ent (svrB) active directory. NIC settings for svr A, prefered dns ip was point to himself and alternate to svr B ip, and NIC settings for svr B vice versa. I went to svr A's dnsmgmt, I'm getting a "X" on svr B and error stating "Cannot contact DNS server", so i run a ping test, able to ping svr B. On svr B dnsmgmt console, I'm able to view both svr on the list. Can anyone out there help me?
Problem2:
After the case with svr A unable to contact svr B DNS, users are unable to contact the some servers in the domain via hostname e.g \\printsvr01, but instead of using hostname IP address works e.g \\192.168.0.1. So, are they related to each other Problem 1 and Problem 2
