Josh,

Try running "cifs prefdc print" which will print out the list of IPs for preferred domain controllers that may have been manually specified.

Subject: testdc brings up old IPs


Hello everyone,
I've got a strange one here... I've got users in another domain that are trying to reach my F760 (6.2R2) and they are rarely ever to get in. I used the cifs testdc command to troubleshoot the problem and found something that is pretty strange. The command finds the domain controllers and is unable to connect to them, upon closer inspection, I realized that those were the old IPs for those servers. I've checked WINS, DNS, and the local hosts file and can find no entries for those old IP addresses. Is there another place I should be looking?
