Well... AD is working fine on itself,
The problem is, the root AD server needs to be a DNS server (to resolve any local domain computers). I also have my ISDN DUN connection going into the same machine, and I am using ICS to (supposedly) offer internet access to other machines on the network. Problem is, all external DNS resolution fails (host not found) from the other machines. I think that the local DNS server needs to try and resolve any domain names it is not aware of via the DUN connection - but am not really sure of how to go about doing this... Looking at the properties on the DNS server, it looks like I need to set up forwarders, but this isn't allowed as the server is a root server... If anyone has any idea then...

The trick (and you are only talking about your local network?) is to install the software and give your 'puter a "valid" domain name right then. Is it too late to do a new install? (that is the only way I have been abel to get Active Directory to work... I am NOT an MCSE though!) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
