Hi

I have got some problems on two of my Windows 2008 servers.
Hardware: both are HP DL380 G5 with newest Firm- and Software.
Running Windows Server 2008 (full patched), AD, DC, DNS Server,
File- and Printserver, Trend Micro Virus Scanner.

Once a week, it seems that the network connections brakes down, although
users still can access shares, etc. Only printing is not possible. The
Symbol of the Trend Micro client looks like a broken
network connection.
I get different error messages in the eventlog like:
Error working group policy object. Name of the DC not found. (...I just
have the German version of the error messages!)
PrintSpooler: ...DNS name couldn't be retrieved!
and so on.

Only rebooting the server solves the problem.

Any ideas?


Thank you very much for your help.

There is just one NIC active, the other one was deactivated.
The NIC has two internal IP adresses.

Hello Peter,

Two different ip's on a DC will create your problems, remove one and it reboot
the netlogon service on the DC. Why did you configure a second ip? Additional
remove the loopback ip 127.0.0.1 from the DNS servers.

What is the DNS server 192.168.140.66 from another subnet?

Also if you not use IPv6 disable it's functionality according to this article:

Hi

My domain contains different subnets.
192.168.140.x
192.168.144.x
192.168.145.x
192.168.146.x
Every local DC is DNS Server for his subnet.
192.168.140.66 is a redundant DNS Server for
all subnets.


I think I need the second IP on each DC because the second
IP was the adress of the old server. (...they are replaced by new ones).


Best regards.
Peter

Hello Peter,

If the old DC is removed correct from the domain with demoting there shouldn't
be any service running what is using that ip address. REMOVE that ip address
from your DC's and the problems will go.

Please describe why you need this old address in detail, this creates your
problems.

Hi

We have some software (not standard software) which have some
"hardcoded" links with the "old" ip adress. That's why I need the
old adress. But I'll try to remove it.

What about DNS, is it ok, that I use the DC (192.168.140.66) from
another subnet as secondary DNS server?

Best Regards.

Hello Peter,

If the software is written that badly , you should get the programmer to
fix that. If the ip is needed why not using one of the available DNS servers
and change the ip address to the old one, assuming that DNS is the reason
for the old ip?

A DNS server from another subnet as secondary is ok.

Hi

I already changed what you suggested, without success.
Today I had the problem on an 2008 Server which worked fine until
this morning. It was the first that, that he "crashed"

Then "something" crashed and I got the errors mentioned
below.
What I found out: It only happend on Windows Server 2008 Std. installed
on brandnew HP ProLiant DL380 G5 and ProLiant DL320G5p.

Best Regards.
Peter

Hello

The server which had the problems, is only DC controller and "master
server", that means that he has the FSMO roles.
There is no bluescreen, normally you can't print and can't access
network shares. In my opinion the error's come from the NIC.
Error messages:

Fehler bei der Verarbeitung der Gruppenrichtlinie. Der Name eines
Domänencontrollers konnte nicht abgerufen werden. Dies kann auf einen
Fehler bei der Namensauflösung zurückzuführen sein. Überprüfen Sie, ob
DNS (Domain Name System) konfiguriert ist und richtig ausgeführt wird.

Der DNS-Server konnte ein TCP-Socket nicht an die Adresse 0.0.0.0
binden. Die Ereignisdaten enthalten den Fehlercode. Eine IP-Adresse von
0.0.0.0 bedeutet, dass ein Socket alle verfügbaren IP-Adressen des
Computers verwendet (eine gültige Konfiguration).
Starten Sie den DNS-Server bzw. den Computer neu.

Der DNS-Server konnte den Socket für die Adresse 0.0.0.0 nicht öffnen.
Überprüfen Sie, ob diese IP-Adresse auf dem Servercomputer gültig ist.
Verwenden Sie im DNS-Manager das Eigenschaftenfenster des Servers und
dort die Registerkarte "Schnittstellen", um diese Adresse gegebenenfalls
von der Adressliste zu entfernen. Starten Sie den DNS-Server danach
erneut. (Falls diese Adresse die einzige IP-Schnittstelle auf diesem
Computer war, konnte der DNS-Server wahrscheinlich aufgrund dieses
Fehlers nicht starten. In diesem Fall entfernen Sie den Eintrag
"ListenAddress" in der Registrierung unter "\Services\DNS\Parameters",
und führen Sie einen Neustart durch.)

Wenn diese IP-Adresse auf dem Computer gültig ist, sollten Sie
sicherstellen, dass keine andere Anwendung (z.B. ein anderer DNS-Server)
aktiv ist, die versucht, auf den DNS-Port zuzugreifen.

Weitere Informationen hierzu finden Sie in der Onlinehilfe im Abschnitt
"DNS-Serverprotokollierungsreferenz".

Die Konsistenzprüfung hat Probleme mit der folgenden
Verzeichnispartition festgestellt.

Verzeichnispartition:
DC=ForestDnsZones,DC=domain,DC=int

Es gibt für die Konsistenzprüfung nicht genügend
Standortskonnektivitätsinformationen, um eine umfassende
Gesamtstruktur-Replikationstopologie zu erstellen. Zudem besteht die
Möglichkeit, dass mindestens ein Verzeichnisserver mit dieser
Verzeichnispartition nicht in der Lage war, die
Verzeichnispartitioninformationen zu replizieren. Dies liegt vermutlich
an nicht zugreifbaren Verzeichnisservern.

Benutzeraktion
Führen Sie einen der folgenden Schritte aus:
- Veröffentlichen Sie genügend Informationen über Standortkonnektivität,
sodass die Konsistenzprüfung eine Route ermitteln kann, durch die die
Verzeichnispartition diesen Standort erreichen kann. Diese Option wird
empfohlen.
- Fügen Sie von einem Verzeichnisdienst mit derselben
Verzeichnispartition auf einem anderen Standort ein Verbindungsobjekt zu
einem Verzeichnisdienst mit der Verzeichnispartition an diesem Standort
hinzu.

Wenn keine dieser beiden Tasks den Problemzustand behebt, überprüfen Sie
die bisher durch die Konsistenzprüfung protokollierten Ereignisse, die
die nicht zugreifbaren Verzeichnisserver identifizieren.

Alle Verzeichnisdienste am folgenden Standort, die die
Verzeichnispartition über diesen Transport replizieren können, sind
zurzeit nicht verfügbar.

Standort:
CN=Innsbruck,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=domain,DC=int
Verzeichnispartition:
CN=Configuration,DC=domain,DC=int
Transport:
CN=IP,CN=Inter-Site Transports,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=domain,DC=int

Best regards.

Hello Peter,

So it seems that the ip address was not based on DNS? Strange in my opinion,
what does the application request from the servers?

For your error please describe mroe detailed as "crashed", what errors in
the event viewer or on the server, blue screen?

Best regards

Hello Peter,

Again the error message states that you have DNS problem.

I suggest that you use the german newsgroup for your problem:
microsoft.public.de.german.windows.server.general
microsoft.public.de.german.windows.server.active_directory

Best regards

Hello The server which had the problems, is only DC controller and "master server", that means that he has the FSMO roles. There is no bluescreen, normally you can't print and can't access network shares. In my opinion the error's come from the NIC. Error messages: Fehler bei der Verarbeitung der Gruppenrichtlinie. Der Name eines Domänencontrollers konnte nicht abgerufen werden. Dies kann auf einen Fehler bei der Namensauflösung zurückzuführen sein. Überprüfen Sie, ob DNS (Domain Name System) konfiguriert ist und richtig ausgeführt wird. Der DNS-Server konnte ein TCP-Socket nicht an die Adresse 0.0.0.0 binden. Die Ereignisdaten enthalten den Fehlercode. Eine IP-Adresse von 0.0.0.0 bedeutet, dass ein Socket alle verfügbaren IP-Adressen des Computers verwendet (eine gültige Konfiguration). Starten Sie den DNS-Server bzw. den Computer neu. Der DNS-Server konnte den Socket für die Adresse 0.0.0.0 nicht öffnen. Überprüfen Sie, ob diese IP-Adresse auf dem Servercomputer gültig ist. Verwenden Sie im DNS-Manager das Eigenschaftenfenster des Servers und dort die Registerkarte "Schnittstellen", um diese Adresse gegebenenfalls von der Adressliste zu entfernen. Starten Sie den DNS-Server danach erneut. (Falls diese Adresse die einzige IP-Schnittstelle auf diesem Computer war, konnte der DNS-Server wahrscheinlich aufgrund dieses Fehlers nicht starten. In diesem Fall entfernen Sie den Eintrag "ListenAddress" in der Registrierung unter "\Services\DNS\Parameters", und führen Sie einen Neustart durch.) Wenn diese IP-Adresse auf dem Computer gültig ist, sollten Sie sicherstellen, dass keine andere Anwendung (z.B. ein anderer DNS-Server) aktiv ist, die versucht, auf den DNS-Port zuzugreifen. Weitere Informationen hierzu finden Sie in der Onlinehilfe im Abschnitt "DNS-Serverprotokollierungsreferenz". Die Konsistenzprüfung hat Probleme mit der folgenden Verzeichnispartition festgestellt. Verzeichnispartition: DC=ForestDnsZones,DC=domain,DC=int Es gibt für die Konsistenzprüfung nicht genügend Standortskonnektivitätsinformationen, um eine umfassende Gesamtstruktur-Replikationstopologie zu erstellen. Zudem besteht die Möglichkeit, dass mindestens ein Verzeichnisserver mit dieser Verzeichnispartition nicht in der Lage war, die Verzeichnispartitioninformationen zu replizieren. Dies liegt vermutlich an nicht zugreifbaren Verzeichnisservern. Benutzeraktion Führen Sie einen der folgenden Schritte aus: - Veröffentlichen Sie genügend Informationen über Standortkonnektivität, sodass die Konsistenzprüfung eine Route ermitteln kann, durch die die Verzeichnispartition diesen Standort erreichen kann. Diese Option wird empfohlen. - Fügen Sie von einem Verzeichnisdienst mit derselben Verzeichnispartition auf einem anderen Standort ein Verbindungsobjekt zu einem Verzeichnisdienst mit der Verzeichnispartition an diesem Standort hinzu. Wenn keine dieser beiden Tasks den Problemzustand behebt, überprüfen Sie die bisher durch die Konsistenzprüfung protokollierten Ereignisse, die die nicht zugreifbaren Verzeichnisserver identifizieren. Alle Verzeichnisdienste am folgenden Standort, die die Verzeichnispartition über diesen Transport replizieren können, sind zurzeit nicht verfügbar. Standort: CN=Innsbruck,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=domain,DC=int Verzeichnispartition: CN=Configuration,DC=domain,DC=int Transport: CN=IP,CN=Inter-Site Transports,CN=Sites,CN=Configuration,DC=domain,DC=int Best regards.
