Just like the error message says, DNS is always the first thing to look at with AD problems.  Is it configured correctly? -----Original Message----- From: A. G.

When I want to add second controller in  a domain I get the error message that “Assess denied You have no permission to change account of the “compuername$”. A dialog box of new user name and password is opened. I tried all possible accounts but without success. I am tha local and domain administrator of these machines and domain. Just for test purpose I tried to add the same server as sub/child domain, and it was successful. But when I tried to remove that sub domain I get reply ”Active Directory Installation failed---- The operation failed to replicate off the changes made locally. The DSA operation is unable to proceed because DNS lookup failure” Any Help Bilal   http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm DO NOT read, copy or disseminate this communication unless you are the intended addressee.
