QUESTION POSED ON: 06 April 2006
I'm setting up a new forest in which I will have two different child domains. I have just set up the parent domain (encorepr.com) using Windows Server 2003. Now I want to add a child domain using a Windows 2000 Server but every time I try to set up AD and contact the parent domain (encorepr.com or encorepr using NetBIOS) I get an error message that states that it cannot contact the parent domain and if I recently set it up it may take time to register with DNS.
I've let it sit for a little while and I still cannot figure out why it will not connect to the parent domain.
Am I doing something wrong or did I miss something in the setup of either server? The parent domain is on a 10.151.1.0/255.255.0.0 network and the child domain I want to create is on a 10.151.2.0/255.255.0.0 network. I want to try to keep them as separated as possible so that's why I used different subnets.
Any idea what I might be doing wrong? Thanks in advance for all of your help!
