Configuration problems with Active Directory
Configuration problems with Active Directory
Hello, I'm preparing a home lab with web servers and an Active Directory domain. The main challenge is that "SERVER1" isn't reaching the domain, so it can't join or be promoted. I've drawn a network diagram showing the setup, but the issue remains unclear. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Consider disabling the firewall on the DC temporarily to test if it resolves the issue. Review its rules to ensure they won't block necessary traffic. Also, verify whether all network clients receive IP addresses via DHCP or if they're assigned manually.
It seems the problem lies with DNS. Verify the DNS server on DC; it might be assigning wrong IP addresses to these domain names.
The DNS layout on DC1 appears as is. I opted for ecorp since there wasn’t a suitable name, inspired by Mr Robot.
It asks about the IP address used to ping on dc1.ecorp.local.
