  I have a domain XX.com

  I have a machine - ServerAB (Windows Server 2003 SP2) that is configured as a domain controller.

  I have another machine (ServerAS) that is added to the same domain (XX.com)

  I have yet another machine (ServerSS) that is added to the same domain (XX.com)

  Problem:  When I try to ping from ServerAS to the the domain as

  ping XX.com

  I get the following error

  Ping request could not find the host XX.com. Please check the name and try again.

  I do not get this error when i ping from the ServerSS machine.

  I have logged into ServerAS as the domain administrator.

  How can I fix this problem?

  contloop, I don't suppose you'd have any further insight.

  I'm encountering the same problem and looking at the url's you offered I'm still not having any luck.

  Thanks. Will
