When you configure the first Domain Controller for your organization using the Active Directory Installation Wizard (or dcpromo for short), it is configured with all five FSMO roles by default. Here I will cover how you can view and transfer the specific FSMO roles of various Domain Controllers in your domain. As this is a short how-to article, I won’t go into the specific details of when you would need to transfer roles, but in short you may want to take a certain domain controller down for maintenance one day and may find it necessary to transfer some, or all of these roles.
To start with you will obviously require more than one Domain Controller in your Windows domain. In my case I have a “Primary” and “Secondary” domain controller called “NOOBS-DC1? and “NOOBS-DC2?.
Transferring roles
RID, PDC or Infrastructure roles:
Start by opening Active Directory Users and Computers on the DC you want to change the role to. Right-click your domain name and select Click Here To Read the rest of this entry

A fairly decent percentage of Active Directory (AD) implementations aren?t running on Microsoft Domain Name System (DNS) servers. In many cases, AD was brought into the environment long after DNS was up and running, typically on UNIX-based servers. In such cases, the company wasn?t about to ditch its existing DNS infrastructure just to accommodate AD.
Fortunately, you don?t have to scrap your existing DNS infrastructure. AD works quite well with non-Microsoft DNS servers, provided the servers support, at a minimum, the storage of SRV resource locator records. SRV support was first added to the industry-standard Berkeley Internet Name Distribution (BIND) in version 8.1.2, and most every new DNS server available supports SRV records.
AD will be considerably easier to work with if your DNS server also supports dynamic DNS (DDNS). Most newer builds do, but for security reasons, most DNS administrators disable this feature. Microsoft?s DNS server supports secured DDNS through the use of Click Here To Read the rest of this entry

One of the first major tasks a domain member computer has to do when it starts is to locate a domain controller. Generally, this task requires the use of a Domain Name System (DNS) server, which contains records for each domain controller in the domain, and the Locator, a remote procedure call to the computer?s local Netlogon service.
Starting Up
When the client computer starts, its Netlogon service starts automatically (in the default configuration). This service implements the DsGetDcName application programming interface (API), which is used to locate a domain controller.
The client begins by collecting a number of pieces of information that will be used to locate a domain controller. This information includes the client?s local IP address, which is used to determine the client?s Active Directory site membership, the desired domain name, and a DNS server address.
Finding the Domain Controllers
Netlogon then queries the configured DNS server. Netlogon retrieves the service Click Here To Read the rest of this entry

Computers that are unable to locate a domain controller for their domain won?t be able to log on and won?t be able to process user logons. Troubleshooting the domain controller location process is a key part of solving many logon problems.
Symptoms
Symptoms of a client?s inability to locate a domain controller include an inability to log on to the domain and an inability to process user logons. You might also see System and Security event log messages indicating that a domain controller for the appropriate domain could not be found.
Verification
To determine the cause of the problem, follow these steps:
1. Verify that the computer has the correct IP configuration for its subnet, including IP address, DNS server, and default gateway. To do so, open a command-line window and run ipconfig /all to display the configured information. If the configuration is wrong, correct it.
2. Use the Ping utility to verify network connectivity to the configured default gateway, DNS server, and at Click Here To Read the rest of this entry
