Active Directory Domain Services - Network Name Cannot be Found
- by Arief
I have really weird problem that I could not explain. I am trying to redirect all users home folder to the new server.
I have copied all the files including the permissions to the new server. All I need to do is to update the user profile for home folder by changing the server name. However, I got this message when I enter the new server name:
My server that serving as AD can resolve the name by ping and nslookup of the server name. The only thing that I don't understand why the MMC cannot resolve the name. I did change with the IP Address and I still get the same error message.
Thank you so much for your help.
UPDATE:
I know what seems to be a problem, but I don't know how to fix it. The new server that will serve all Home folder is actually sitting in the cloud with different IP Address as the Domain Controller. The Domain Controller is sitting locally in the office with 10.0.0.0/24 IP Addresses. The new server that is sitting in on Data Centre is on 172.10.10.10/24 IP Addresses.
The static route has been set up on both end, and the DNS as well.
I believe this is the issue. Does anyone how to overcome this situation?
Thank you.
