Hey
We currently have a Windows Server 2008 R2 domain, with the following:
- 2 domain controllers which are also DHCP and DNS servers
Following a power outage and incorrect booting sequence of our domain controllers, we have the following issue with our authorised DHCP Servers:
- The DNS name is correct
- The IP address is incorrect
"netsh dhcp show servers" yields the following results:
2 Servers were found in the directory service:
Server [dC1.domain.local] Address [10.2.103.1] Ds location: cn=dC1.domain.local
Server [dC2.domain.local Address [10.2.103.2] Ds location: cn=dc2.domain.local
Command completed successfully.
In the Active Directory (ADSI Edit) at CN=DhcpRoot,CN=NetServices,CN=Services,CN=Configuration the following attributes are <not set>:
- dhcpServers
In the same NetServices area, there are entries for both of the domain controllers. The DNS names are correct (as evidenced from running "netsh dhcp show servers") but the IP Address is incorrect. Thus, for dc1.domain.local, the dhcpServers attribute is:
- ¡10.2.103.1$cn=dc1.domain.local$f(0x00000000$sdc1.domain.local$
After all this information, the question is: to fix the incorrect IP address, can we amend the IP address to the correct IP?
