DNS PROBLEM

[mikeeboy]

I have a huge problem in my dns server..... the server went down due to fan failure.... i replaced the fan, able to restart the server and able to connect to network.... i checked the services, everything started normally..... but one of my server is not accessible by client computers, it won't map the drive that the server is sharing. when i checked the DNS Snap-in the server seems the dns is not resolving any ips.... i tried to restart or stop and start for several times but no luck.

does anybody knows how i can fic this??

Can you do a restore including the system state? Good luck.

2. Make sure you point to the DNS on TCP/IP settings.
3. Check DNS and WINS servers and make sure correct settings and records.

5. Use static IP to test it.
6. Remove it from the domain and re-join it.
