VM is not getting connected to domain

Question

VM is not getting connected to domain

Heena Dudeja 5

We have created a domain service using the admin account of our organisation and then created a virtual machine using one of the user account of the same organisation. Now we are not be able to connect to the domain with the virtual machine. Now when we are changing the configuration of VM from workgroup to registered domain, it's showing us an error of "Domain could not be contacted" Screenshot enclosed here.MicrosoftTeams-image.png

Hi Heena

in addition to what Dave Patrick sees also DNS.

By default the DNS of the virtual machines comes with the configuration of the Azure server, change it pointing to your domain controller

@Jackson Martins Hello Sir, I have a follow up question to Heena's. I have the same situation as her but I don't have a domain controller. I have a fully cloud deployed Active Directory and Azure subscription. I am not sure what to change the DNS to or what the subnet should be in order to have proper connectivity. I have the same error as Heena. Can you point me in the correct direction to what information I am supposed to use? I know how to change the DNS/Subnet ect. but I don't know what to change it to since I don't have a domain controller.

Please run;

Dcdiag /v /c /d /e /s:%computername% >C:\dcdiag.log (run on PDC emulator)
repadmin /showrepl >C:\repl.txt (run on any domain controller)
ipconfig /all > C:\%computername%.txt (run on EVERY domain controller)
ipconfig /all > C:\problemworkstation.txt (run on problem pc)

Also check the domain controller System and Replication (DFS or FRS) event logs for errors since last boot. Post the Event Source and Event IDs of any found. (no evtx files)

then put unzipped text files up on OneDrive and share a link.
