This whole week, I have been reading madly to set up Active Directory and Domain Name service on windows server 2008 and windows 7 clients. Learned that DNS is the KEY to understand and configure AD-DS. But what's more? before even configure DNS, set up computers to connect and share/access resource can be tricky.
The error: network path not found
when I try to join a client computer to a domain. Thought it must be some AD-DS error. But hang on, let me try to do simple file sharing...and yes...I got the same error. The frustration is that I can ping and dns test with nslookup fine the server. Even when all firewalls on server are turned off.
the solution.
Network adapter setting must be set properly for
clients: - check Client for Microsoft Networks
server: File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Network <= ****** key solution without this no effort works - and I have figure it out today Friday after a long struggling week with nothing done but madly reading.
