Guest google@webedi.co.uk Posted July 22, 2007 Posted July 22, 2007 Hi We installed Windows 2003 Server a few months ago and we're experiencing issues with it. Recently we keep on having to reboot the server in order to log in from the 20 XP workstations connected to it. The event log shows 4 errors and 1 information, all with the same time stamp. and it repeats these events roughly every hour. 15:23:55 Source:DNS Event ID: 4007 The DNS server was unable to open zone _msdcs.rjs-network in the Acive Directory from the application directory partition ForestDnsZones.RJS- NETWORK. This DNS server is configured to obtain and use information from the directory for this zone and is unable to load the zone without it. check that the Active Directory is functioning properly and reload the zone. The event data is the error code. 15:23:55 Source:DNS Event ID: 4007 The DNS server was unable to open zone _msdcs.RJS in the Acive Directory from the application directory partition ForestDnsZones.RJS.

Guest Coraleigh Miller Posted July 23, 2007 Posted July 23, 2007 Re: DNS is crashing WIndows 2003 Server Have you recently installed any software on your server? If you have, try disabling them from bootup one at a time to determine which if any is the culprit. I had this same issue happen to a friend of mine not too long ago and, in his case, it was caused by a 3rd party application called Dameware he had installed. These errors *typically* occur upon bootup because the DNS service is starting before your active directory is ready to deal with it, its a temporary miscommunication, but I dont believe it would cause the issues as you've described.
