I have just verified that I have the latest version of Netdiag (5.2.3790.0). As for the netlogon.dns file, I have verified it. In fact, I renamed it, restarted netlogon service and it recreated it correctly.
I'm running this from a terminal server session on the box itself. I haven't tried running it remotely. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Al Mulnick Sent: Monday, November 07, 2005 2:58 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Unreadable Netlogon.dns file I *think* there was an updated version of netdiag that came out. It might be useful to ensure you have the latest. Also, have you verified that the file exists? If neither of those relates, can you give some more information? Are you running this remotely from your desktop? From the console? Same results regardless?
