Hello, I re-provisioned my domain from internal.testdom.com to testdom.com to see if using a subdomain may be causing my problem. Now I get the following error when promoting the Windows 2008R2 machine:
The number of DNS servers registered as authoritative name servers for this domain could not be determined. Error: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect. I also tried using testdom.local and the problem persists. It seems that anytime I provision the domain as "domain.tld", I get the above error when promoting the 2008R2 machine. When I provision as "subdomain.domain.tld", Windows detects one authoritative server for the domain (which is correct). Thanks for any assistance.
