We are having issues setting up a new domain controller and cannot get the NETLOGON and SYSVOL shares to appear. Any advice would greatly be appreciated.
ENVIRONMENT:
Domain: mydomain.domain
DC01 (Domain Controller (existing), DNS Server, OS: Server 2003, 192.168.0.197)
DC02 (Domain Controller (new), DNS Server, OS: Server 2003, 192.168.0.202)
OUR INTENTIONS
We plan to decommission DC01. DC02 will eventually be the only domain controller in the environment.
WHAT WE HAVE DONE:
- Setup Active Directory on DC02.
- Transferred all FSMO roles to DC02.
- Tried setting the BurFlags registry value to D2 on DC02 per this article:

I believe the start of all our problems may have been due to invalid DNS settings (both DC01 and DC02 are DNS Servers). We use Hamachi for remote access to these servers, not sure if it caused any problems. I ended up making the following changes the other night hoping to correct the problem (I did run ipconfig /flushdns and ipconfig/registerdns after making changes):
---DNS Settings Before----
DC01 NIC:
Primary DNS: 127.0.0.1
Alternate DNS: 4.2.2.1
DC01 DNS Server:
Listening on all adapters.
DC02 NIC:
Primary DNS: 192.168.0.202 (self)
Alternate DNS: 4.2.2.1
DC02 DNS Server:
Listening on all adapters.
----DNS Settings After----
DC01 NIC:
Primary DNS: 192.168.0.197 (self)
Alternate DNS: 4.2.2.1
DC01 DNS Server:
Listening only on 192.168.0.197 (self)
DC02 NIC:
Primary DNS: 192.168.0.202
Alternate DNS: 4.2.2.1
DC02 DNS Server:
Listening only on 192.168.0.202
WHERE WE ARE STUCK:
Now I am receiving journal wrap errors on DC01 but the\\DC01\NETLOGON and\\DC01\SYSVOL shares are still available. I am still unable to get the\\DC02\NETLOGON and\\DC02\SYSVOL shares to come up.
Results for the following commands can be foundhere.
net share
dcdiag
ipconfig /all
dcdiag /test:dns
repadmin /showrepl
NetDOM /query FSMO
We have also been seeing the following errors/warnings in the event logs on both servers (detailed logs can be foundhere):
- Directory Service: 1126,1308,1655,1960,2087,2088
- DNS: 6702
- File Replication: 13508,13565,13566,13568
Any help will be greatly appreciated- Thank you in Advance!
