DSGETDCNAME advertising test failing. SYSVOL and NETLOGON shares not replicating. Please help!!!

Hello all. We are currently running a Windows Server 2003 ADDC as a virtual machine on a Windows Server 2012 host using Hyper-V. We have recently added a second Windows Server 2012 ADDC also as a Hyper-V VM. I promoted the 2k12 to a DC, transferred all FMOS
roles, and tested AD replication. All AD data was replicated fine. However a DCDIAG (the results of which I have attached to this post) show a few errors.
First off, it is failing the advertising test. This is more than likely due to a DNS error. Unfortunately, I can not seem to find the error within the DNS to resolve it. 
Secondly, it is failing the KccEvent test; also seeming as a DNS related error.
Thirdly, both SYSVOL and NETLOGON shares were not successfully replicated. This is likely the basis for the other issues. Without these successfully replicated, I can not demote the 2K3 server; which is the goal in the end, to replace the old server with
the new. 
I am willing to try just about anything, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. As for what I have tried, I have tried a non-authoritative restore using burr flags with no success. I CAN ping both DCs from each other ensuring connectivity. All
users can currently log on to the server (due to the fact that the 2K3 server is still running and still holds the SYSVOL and NETLOGON shares).
Once again, any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Thank you for your response first of all! And in response:
1. "Retired1" is the 2k3 ADDC / DNS Server. It currently has a different IP than the 2K12 Server. Verified with ipconfig/all.
2. I set 2K12 to only 2K3 for DNS; no external ISP servers or itself listed. Registered DNS, restarted netlogon; no success.
3. ipconfig/all for 2K12 server here:

Thanks again and hopefully we can work this out!
Seems like you have/had a server named "retired1" with the same IP address as the new 2012 server? (if this is a old server) remove all references to it in DNS
Make sure that on the 2012 server in the TCP/IP DNS Settings, you only point to the 2003 DC for DNS (Not it self for now, and no external ISP DNS servers) - Run ipconfig /registerdns and restart the netlogon service on the 2012 server.
Can you post and unedited output of ipconfig /all from the 2012 server?
Did you make the 2012 server a global catalog? (if not I would recommend that)http://support.microsoft.com/kb/296882

    Besides, DFSR instead of FRS is used.
    Sorry that I'm newbie to Windows and afraid if I've anything missed.   Would anyone please help?
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi all,
    Thanks for your advice.  I updated following settings and restart the server:
    - IPv6: set both address/DNS to dynamic
    - IPv4: Add 127.0.0.1 as alternate DNS server
    Same error reported in dcdiag.   Besides, the server name used by nslookup is Unknown.
    I'm afraid if I've something missed :(
    Sorry for the trouble caused.  Thanks a lot.

  • Want to modify sysvol and netlogon share permissions

    HI all,
    As per security concern we need to remove the everyone from share permission on SYSVOL and NETLOGON share.......can anyone provide me the suggesstion for the same...or any documented article which says that how to do it or what precaution showld we take....
    Or if the permission is by design has any document or Kb article which says the permission should not be changed.
    Appreciate any help.
    Thanks........
    Ahmed Gaziyani Enterprise Admin.

    Hello,
    If you remove such permission then you will have issues in appliance of group policies and netlogon scripts on your users. Users should have at least read permission on the SYSVOL folder so that group policies and netlogon scripts will be applied.

  • Monitor Sysvol and netlogon Share availability on domain controllers

     I need to monitor availability of sysvol and Netlogon shares on all our domain controllers around 20 in all.
    What is the best way for us to do that.
    I have seen scripts that monitor share availability but that would mean i create 40 such 2 times script monitors , that is too much of manual work..
    Any advice.

    I looked into the discovered Inventory (SysVol for windows 2008)  I see all theobjects 
    But the path shows as dc01.domain.com\dc01\sysvol
    However we never get notified when the sysvol share is inaccessible.
    We have had a number of cases when the DC is online but somehow we cant access the sysvol share
    We need a monitor to alert us in such a case;
    I modified the our script to include %computername%  and targeted it to all dC's  group,
    Dim oAPI, oBag
    Set oAPI = CreateObject("MOM.ScriptAPI")
    Set oBag = oAPI.CreatePropertyBag()
    Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    strFile = "\\%computername%\sysvol\"
    If objFSO.FolderExists(strFile) Then
    Call oBag.AddValue("Status","Exist")
    Call oAPI.Return(oBag)
    Else
    Call oBag.AddValue("Status","NotExist")
    Call oAPI.Return(oBag)
    End If
    However the monitor alerted critical  immediately.
    How should the monitor be.
    I though if i put \\%computername%\sysvol\ in the script and send it to all the DC's group then it will start monitoring as \\dc01\sysvol etc

  • HT1539 Digital copy code on the DVD Knight and Day saying 'not valid', please help.

    I bought the DVD Knight and Day and i have tried to download the digital copy of the film, however when i go to add my serial number for itunes which was on the slip in the dvd box, it says ' this code is not valid', i have entered the code many times and correctly, please help.

    From what I can tell, the digital copy offer for Alvin & the Chipmunks expired back in March; at least it did for the Blu-Ray version in the US. This is a scam being run by the movie studios; they advertise digital copies on the Blu-Ray and DVD disks they sell, but don't tell you up front that they're redeemable only for a limited time after the movie is first released. You may need to contact customer support for 20th Century Fox and get them to help:
    [email protected] or dial (866) 520-6606

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • The iphoto and itunes will not open please help

    on my Mac G5 the iphoto and itunes will not open can anyone help

    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    Then, hold the Option key down when trying to open iPhoto, does it ask where it's Library is? Or what exactly happens?

  • I have a iphone 4s that I am trying to syn. whenI look at Iphone content it shows music, but there is this symbol  A dotted circle and these will not play.please help asI am frustrated.

    I have a iPhone 4s that I am trying to syn. when I look at IPhone content it shows music, but there is this symbol  A dotted circle and these will not play. Please help as I am frustrated.

    Try restoring the iPhone to factory settings. If you are having difficult restoring, put the iPhone into Recovery Mode and see if that then works:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If not, or if a restore to factory settings does not fix the problem, then your iPhone may have a hardware problem. You can only get the iPhone serviced by Apple in Canada, so you will have to take the iPhone there or send it to someone you know in Canada who can get the iPhone serviced and send it back to you. The only option for getting service in Pakistan would be to pay some unauthorized repair shop to attempt a repair, after which Apple will no longer provide any service even in Canada.
