Troubleshooting DNS-Related AD Logon Problems, Part 1

How the DNS lookup process can fail
I get many reader questions that go something like this: "I set up a test computer called DC1 at 192.168.1.4 to play with Active Directory (AD). This computer runs Windows 2000 Server and acts as both the DNS server and the first AD domain controller (DC) on my test domain, which I call acme.com. Everything works fine with that DC—I can create users and run all the AD administrative tools. Then, I put Win2K Server on another comp...

Where is the resolution? How is this a troubleshooting document? It just told me what I already know, I have a problem with DNS! Sigh, I guess I'll look elsewhere.

You did not address other logon problem scenarios and resolutions. Scenario:
2 DCs on the DMZ as Web Servers running Windows 2003 Enterprise. AD integrated DNS on both DCs, and servers resolve own DNS.

Problem: Users accessing the public web sites randomly get a login request box. IIS folder permissions and NTFS permissions are correct. What is causing the problem?

I am running in mixed mode. One PC which is xp cannot see the network in "my network places" claiming a lack of permission. But it can map a drive to a server on the network. Same with the printers. It doesn't matter who is logged on. Is this a DNS error?

I am having this problem is there a next page that has the resolution? or a fix for this?

Troubleshooting is supposed to have some resolution. None are included with this document. Why?

I have domain name same as my registered internet domain name and I resolve address fine. I do get other problems though. The XP Pro stations seems to work fine but looking in the event log show domain related errors:

Every 30-40 minutes it logs event id 1030: Windows cannot query for the list of Group Policy objects. A message that describes the reason for this was previously logged by the policy engine.

and event id 1005: Windows cannot connect to mydomain.com domain. (Operations Error). Group Policy processing aborted.

I wonder if these errors are related. I have looked all over MS site but nothing on these ids.
