Unable to access NETLOGON

New server 2019 DC. Forest/domain level 2012r2.

New 2019 DC. NTDS and SYSVOL were set to a separate partition as I was lead to believe that this was better than having it on the system partition. This was done during dcpromo.

This is the first time I have set them on a separate partition.

When going to This PC - map network drive - \new2019dcservername\netlogon, I get an error.

Unable to connect 0x80070043.

Is this a result of the above being on a different partition or something else wrong?

How do I resolve this error while keeping the above on a separate partition?

I am able to do this with existing DC's where the above was set to the default locations.

If I have to move them back to the default c:\windows folders, please provide the cmd, cmdlets needed to do so.

Thanks
