I have a problem joining Vista Clients to Windows Server 2003 AD Domain. The error message is "An attempt to resolve the DNS name of a DC in the domain being joined has failed. Please verify this client is configured to reach a DNS server that can resolve DNS names in the target domain." The Windows XP clients are all connected to the domain without any problem. Please help me out. |
