hi!

maybe a no-problem for you: i added a second
server to my domain - but now only admin
can login to the second server. all other
users are denied. the disk accepted the
share for "domain users", but when they
logon to the new server - denied. interes-
ting also that when I want to "import" the
users into AD of the second server, W2K
says "domain could not be contacted"....
strange....it must be something in DNS ?

thanks a lot !

jurg

Did you set up the second server as a BDC or a PDC, and is the first server set up to recognize the BDC? Otherwise, the second server must use a different domain and the users must choose, at login, which domain to log into.

in w2k no bdc/pcd...
check subnets...check dynamic dns lookup to make sure that there are proper domain controller records for the domain...may need to use dcpromo.exe to take the 2nd server out, and then reinstall it into the domain and make sure you point it to the original dns server
HINT: before installing 2nd machine into domain, make sure you can ping the original domain by it's name...this will prove that the dns lookup is functioning properly...

could it be as simple as you installed a copy of 2000 eval with a 120 day licence...

after 120 days only admins can log in...
