Win2K server

Hi,

When starting the AD setup on a Win2000 server I get the following error a
few seconds after
the AD setup has started-

"File Replication Service: The dependency service or group failed to start"

And then the setup fails.
Does anyone know why, and how to workaround this?



Much Obliged

Michael,

Check the entries in your log files. This KB article should help :

Hi,

I suspect that you are right.
I have just let the Windows run the default installation of the DNS when
prompted during the AD setup.

Is there anything I can check to verify that the DNS is working properly?



Thanks.
Michael

Go to a DOS prompt. Type "nslookup"

If the answer times out, then there is no name server.
When nslookup returns your server IP as a valid
name server, AD setup will work.
