Greetings,
Basically after creating this child domain (orlando.example.local) under the main domain example.local, When you look into the users and computers, the child domain itself only shows the users and computers of the parent domain. Then when I right click and try and change the domain, it shows me the child domain under the parent, but when I choose it, I receive an error window: "The domain orlando.example.local could not be found because the specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted"
I've been trying to figure our the problem for a couple of weeks. Is there a fix to this other than starting all over again?
Note: This is a Windows Server 2012 that was already configured as a stand alone domain, I demoted and uninstall the services, then promoted again as a child domain.
Note 2: At first it wouldn't let me promote as a child domain because the parent domain was in a different forest functional level (win svr std r2- win svr std). So I use power shell to take down the parent to match the forest functional level of the child domain.
