[G2gCya]

sorry, im not sure where i should really post this thread

I have this problem when i'm trying to join a domain and really need some help, can anyone help me with this?

An active directory domain controller for the domain " " could not be contacted.

Ensure that the domain name is type correctly.

Detail:
Note: This information is intended for a network administrator. If you are not your network's administrator, notify the administrator that you received this information, which has been recorded in the file C:\Windows\debug\dcdiag.txt.

The following error occurred when DNS was queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate an Active Directory Domain Controller (AD DC) for domain "":

The error was: "DNS name does not exist."
(error code 0x0000232B RCODE_NAME_ERROR)

The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs
Common causes of this error include the following:

- The DNS SRV records required to locate a AD DC for the domain are not registered in DNS. These records are registered with a DNS server automatically when a AD DC is added to a domain. They are updated by the AD DC at set intervals. This computer is configured to use DNS servers with the following IP addresses:

192.168.1.1

- One or more of the following zones do not include delegation to its child zone:

You cannot join a domain without know the password for a privileged account that is allowed to join machines to a domain that is on the domain. Further more, you'll need to be connecting to one of the DCs to do that.

thx guy, that's my school domain anyway, maybe i need to connect to their connection in order to join

That is what I was saying - your attempt to add the school's domain was trying t o go to what looks to be your router - you would need to have a valid connection to the school network in order to access the DC in order to join the domain.

Next, you'd need to have a username that has access privileges that allow you to join computers to the Domain.

Finally, you'd need to know the exact domain to join to - although your school domain may be {schoolname}.edu, your *actual* domain may be something like {prefix}.{schoolname}.edu - this type of information you'll need to get from the network administrators.

haa thx

Yah, that is what I thought.

I doubt your school will let you join their domain as well. Computers joining domains are usually for PCs the admin has direct control over. Your home computer would not qualify.

Any new sid need to be run before joining the AD?
