I have a 1 DC environment (no $ for a 2nd one).
It's on the fritz. Possible memory issue and/or possible windows corruption.
Anyway, I have a temporary box setup, joined domain, promoted to DC, forced replication via ad sites and services. Said it completed successfully.
New DC is a global catalog.
However, when the original DC goes offline, the new DC can no longer access AD users and computers, etc.
The new DC cannot access Netlogon either. I can connect using the original DC as the source but can't use the new DC as the source.
\\newdc\netlogon while on new DC doesn't work
\\olddc\netlogon while on new DC does work
Both DC's are 2012 R2 standard.
Thanks!
