Windows 8.1 Clients cant register record in DNS in forest functional level 2008 environment (DNS Client Events 8018)

Hello,
I have two DC,:
first Windows Server 2008, second Windows Server 2012 R2,
AD works in forest functional level 2008
Workstations working in Windows 8.1 OS cant register to DNS with warning:
The system failed to register host (A or AAAA) resource records (RRs) for network adapter
with settings:
           Adapter Name : ...................................................
           Host Name : ...................................
           Primary Domain Suffix : ....................................
           DNS server list :
           Sent update to server : <?>
           IP Address(es) :
The reason the system could not register these RRs was because the DNS server contacted refused the update request. The reasons for this might be (a) you are not allowed to update the specified DNS domain name, or (b) because the DNS server authoritative for
this name does not support the DNS dynamic update protocol.
To register the DNS host (A or AAAA) resource records using the specific DNS domain name and IP addresses for this adapter, contact your DNS server or network systems administrator.

Hi,
Functional levels determine the available Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) domain or forest capabilities. They also determine which Windows Server operating systems you can run on domain controllers in the domain or forest. However, functional levels
do not affect which operating systems you can run on workstations and member servers that are joined to the domain or forest. Set the domain and forest functional levels to the highest value that the environment can support, in order to use as many AD DS features
as possible.
You may reference SenneVL’s suggestion, and use ipconfig /registerdns
on the workstation to confirm that if the DNS record can be registered.
Best Regards,
Eve Wang

  • Windows 2008 R2 domain controllers with Windows 2003 forest functional level Supported after Windows 2003 support ends in July 2015

    Hi
    Anyone knows whether Windows 2008 R2 domain controllers with Windows 2003 forest functional level will still be Supported after Windows 2003 support ends in July 2015 ?
    Thanks

    When Windows Server 2003 support ends, you should not have a Windows Server 2003 Domain Controller running if you would like to be supported by Microsoft. This means that there will be no reason to have a DFL or FFL that is lower than Windows Server 2008.
    So, if you are keeping Windows Server 2003 FFL to keep DCs running Windows Server 2003 then this is not supported.

  • Windows Server 2012 R2 - New Forest - Lowest forest fuctional level 2008

    Hi,
    I just setup a new win2k12 r2 forest. I notice the lowest forest functional level that I can select is only Windows Server 2008. How come 2003 is not on there when it is supported in the document below?
    The following table shows the features that are available at each forest functional level.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/understanding-active-directory-functional-levels%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
    Thanks

    Windows Server 2003 is in extended support and even the extended support will end next year - So setting up Windows Server 2003 DCs in a brand new forest of this date doesn't make sense (or at least it's not what Microsoft want you to do)

  • Itunes window so big i cant register my new ipod

    I already have a nano and now i got the new 3rd generation (fat) nano videos and when i tunes loads up i cannot scroll over and down to the bottom right hand corner of my screen - tried pulling the window up so that i can make it wider but no dice........ the thing is i got it for my sisters b-day and i cant use the device if i cannot register it!!!
    please help!

    I remember having a similar problem,
    I found that if you made the screen resolution smaller you can see the rest of the window.
    I'm guessing your current resolution is 800 x 600 pixels
    and if you change it to 1024 x 768 pixels the whole window should be visible
    You can change the resolution by going into My Computer > Control Panel > Display > Settings
    On the settings tab you should be able to see where you can change the resolution.
    It takes a little while to get used to because everything is smaller, but if you really don't like it you can always change it back after you have registered.
    Anyways hope this information is of some use.

  • What is the effect if I Raise my domain functional level to Windows Server 2012 R2 ?

    Hi,
    my current servers:
    Domain Controllers= Windows Server 2012 R2 (current domain functional level is windows 2008 R2)
    Mail servers= Exchange 2010 SP3 on Windows 2008 R2
    Lync= Lync 2010 on Windows server 2008 R2
    What is the effect if I Raise my domain functional level to Windows Server 2012 R2 ?
    I am very worried about Exchange & Lync if we do this action
    please advice

    Do not raise the forest functional level higher if you have or will have any domain controllers running
    an earlier version of Windows Server , which is (windows Nt4.0,  Window 2000 or windows 2003)
    but as a matter of fact I dont see any of those in your network so you can easily upgrade the funtional level without any issues
    Listed below link has the table which shows the effects of upgrading the domain functional levels to Windows 2012

  • Constantly getting "Reopen for Clustered Client Failover registered application has failed for FileObject " error in CCFilter eventlog.

    Hi everybody.
    Hope somebody will be able to help me with the following issue.
    I have the following environment configuration:
    1. WFC cluster (cluster1) contains 3 nodes - sql1,sql2,sql3
    2. sql1 and sql2 can run single shared instance SQL server
    3. Node sql3 is a standalone SQL server.
    4. AlwaysON is turned on shared instance and standalone SQL servers and availability group have been configured for multiple DBs. So sql3 is a replica of shared instance.
    5. All this runs on Vmware as a virtual machine.
    I'm  constantly getting following error in Microsoft-Windows-CCFFilter/Operational logfile when I execute SQL DB/Transaction log backup maintenance plan on my shared instance SQL server (sql1 or sql2):
    Log Name:      Microsoft-Windows-CCFFilter/Operational
    Source:        Microsoft-Windows-CCFFilter
    Date:          10/24/2014 6:00:12 AM
    Event ID:      2000
    Task Category: None
    Level:         Error
    Keywords:      
    User:          DOMAIN\wfcsqlsvc
    Computer:      SQL1
    Description:
    Reopen for Clustered Client Failover registered application has failed for FileObject 0xfffffa801cbb08a0 to \SQL3\Backups\Logs\DB1\DB1_backup_2014_10_24_060003_3960528.trn with status 0xC0000034
    Getting multiple mentioned errors for every single DB I'm running my backup maintenance plan against. The maintenance plan gets executed on SQL1 which is shared instance machine.
    Any ideas of what can cause this and how to fix it.
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes. I'm doing backup on primary replica in the AlwaysOn Availability Group. And this primary replica itself is a WFC shared SQL instance.
    I've double checked Maintenance Plan's History and Agent's logs. No Error, no warning, nothing. And by the way DB full and transaction log backups gets created as they should. By that I mean that 'For availability databases, ignore Replica Priority for Backup
    and Backup on Primary Settings' property is turned on and this allows me to do backups from primary replica.
    As you've written I've clear the maintenance plan setting ''For availability databases, ignore Replica Priority for Backup and Backup on Primary Settings.', and configure the availability group's AUTOMATED_BACKUP_PREFERENCE setting to allow backup from any
    replica for certain availability group. But still nothing. Getting the same error.
    This is how AVG1 are configured regarding Backup preferences:
    For example this subplan from Maintenance plan cause mentioned errors:

  • I just changed my residence to the US and now I cant register my new US credit card on itunes cause the state list doesnt match to the US states, what should I do?

    I just changed my residence to the US and now I cant register my new US credit card on itunes cause the state list doesnt match to the US states, what should I do?

    Your credit card info, billing address must be the same country as the iTunes store country you registering.
    For example, you can’t have a credit card from a U.S. bank with  a U.S. billing address registered in the iTunes store for China.
    I tried to change my payment information too, but it happened the same, I can change the information but when I get to the state part, it only shows the other country states
    Remove all payment info and save it.
    Then change the iTunes store country to U.S., add a U.S. credit card with a U.S. billing address.
    As previously suggested, if this does not work, contact iTunes store support.

Change the selection and try again."
    Ive even tried opening in itunes and copying from thier but they wont open in Itunes, no message or anything they simple just dont open. its strange because it does open in quicktime player.
    please if anyone has any ideas that can help me please let me know XD thanks.

    First problem: You're fine. The hotter it gets, the more the fans spin up. The computer is designed so that at max load, at max fan speed, it won't overheat (unless it's obstructed by something, e.g. sitting on your bed swallowed by a comforter). It's not the best thing to keep it that toasty for days at a time, but a couple hours at a time shouldn't be a problem.
    Second problem: If something in the trash won't delete, just use Secure Empty Trash and it should be fine. Since .torrent files are quite small, it should only take a couple seconds.

    What kind of software do you use for the conversion to pdf? Adobe Reader can't create pdf files.

  • I have a new windows PC and when I registered my account with I Tunes only the recent music that I purchased off I Tunes was in my Library all the music that added to the library is missingÉ

    I have a new PC running windows 8 and when I registered my new account with I Tunes only the recent music that I purchased off I Tunes populated in my music library. The other material that I imported into my library from CD is missing. I am missing several hundred recordings and want to know if it is possible to get them back without having to go back to my old PC and manually make out a missing catalogue of music and re-importing back into my new PCÉ

    Your media is only where you put it.
    Installing iTunes and signing into your iTunes account does not cause media to magically appear.
    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer or the backup of the old computer to the new computer.
    FYI, there is nothing to import and if you are smart and want to avoid duplicates you will NOT import anything.

  • How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc which has ample remaining free space? After preparing the new video for burning and clicking on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject.

    How can I add new content in iDVD to a DVD-RW disc with a video previously successfully recorded on it? (The disc has ample remaining free space.)
    After preparing the new video for burning and clicking in the File menu on Burn to iDVD, I get a window saying the disc's already recorded and that I can either Erase or Eject. My assumption has been that iDVD would automatically find the free space and continue with the new recording from there. I'd be grateful if anyone can shine light on this.

    There are, but not with a DVD written as a movie disk. It must be closed when completed, or it doesn't work.
    Apple's built in Burn utility also automatically closes any data CD, DVD or Blu-ray disk you burn. Doesn't matter how much space is unused, you can't use it. You'd have to use a more advanced disk creation app, such as Toast Titanium. I then have the option of choosing to write the data as a session:
    I can keep doing this until the disk is full. If I've written five sessions to the disk, when I put it in the drive, five CD/DVD icons will appear on the desktop since the OS will treat each session as if they are separate physical disks. At any point you choose Write Disk when writing a group of data, that means you're closing the disk, and again can't add anything after that. So if I had written two sessions, and the third was Write Disk, it's over. I can't put anything else on that disk.
