<\/p>\n
I can ping domain.local, i can ping the IP Address of the DC, I can ping the FQDN of the server. I can access shares of the server with \\domain.local. But the client will not join the domain. I have all firewalls disabled. My hair is already turning gray. I don’t need anymore help from this. Please someone tell me how stupid i am and help me fix it. Thanks everyone.<\/p>","upvoteCount":9,"answerCount":14,"datePublished":"2023-09-27T12:05:05.000Z","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"6knights","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/6knights"},"suggestedAnswer":[{"@type":"Answer","text":"

A few questions:<\/p>\n
Are all endpoints affected, or only one?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
Can you use nslookup<\/em>, specifying the new DNS server, and get predictable output? (e.g. \"nslookup hostname DNSServerIPAddress\")<\/em><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n -<\/em> Can you assign a static IP to the endpoint and join it to the domain?<\/p>","upvoteCount":0,"datePublished":"2023-09-27T12:35:25.000Z","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/t/dns-issue/959803/2","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"wood-rabbit","url":"https://community.spiceworks.com/u/wood-rabbit"}},{"@type":"Answer","text":" Nslookup works fine.
