Thread: Problem with DFS domain enumeration in Windows Server 2003

I am running Windows 2003 Server R2. I have DFS server on which I have installed DFS Replication and DFS Management Tools. I am in a multi domain forest. I am unable to manage the DFS infrastructure. When I try to add the namespace to the display in the DFS Management console, I get the error message. The error message is “The namespace on <domainname>.com cannot be enumerated. The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted”. I can enumerate the DFS namespace for the other domains, but with this domain. Don’t know why. Can anyone help me? Please.

Thanks.

I think the problem is with your domain only. Reboot the Primary Domain Controller Emulator. After rebooting, wait for about 30 minutes to 40 minutes for Active Directory to replicate. Then try to add the namespace.
