After I change the whole IP range of my company from 192.168.2.0 to 10.122.123.0 , I can't open the active directory.
SO, I try to modify the DNS host record to the DNS, it still not work.
Then I del the DNS records and want to add the pdc to the DNS, but it tell me "the server ""pdc"" is not available"

do anyone know that what should I change to let my pdc be added in DNS?
 
HI!

Make sure that the TCPIP configuration on the server, uses the correct (new) IP address of the DNS server (which could be itself).
Restart the server if needed.

Also start DNS management console and check the ZONE configuration - SOA, Name Servers, and other records.
Delete and rebuild the zone if needed.
Make sure that the zone accepts dynamic updates.

Do not manualy mess with those SRV records. They should be filled out automatically.


Also verify that clients use the new DNS address using DHCP or manual configuration.

Bye
