I am having difficulty connecting my laptop to my domain. I have recently set up a domain controller in my flat but, when I try and connect to it using my machine, it says "An attempt to resolve the DNS name failed" and when I try and type in the full domain name instead of the NetBIOS name, it tells me that no domain controller can be found. I manually set the DNS server to point to my domain controller but it still doesn't work.



I did think that renaming the domain (using this guide: http://www.rebeladmin.com/2015/05/step-by-step-guide-to-rename-active-directory-domain-name/) might help but it doesn't seem to have helped.



Can you guys help me because I do not know what the hell is wrong. I am using Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard on my server and the Windows 10 Enterprise Evaluation on my laptop. Should I put the DNS of the server to its own IP address?

Is it possible your home router is using 192.168.0.1 as it's IP address? Try changing the server to a different address.

If you can't access your SYSVOL, there's definitely something wrong with you DC or DNS.

- Make sure the proper services in the domain controller is on, and run analyzer to ensure your DC is healthy

- Make sure your DNS is properly advertised

Active Directory Best Practices Analyzer

- Test telnet port 389 and 3269 from this new machine to the DC
