  1. unable to look up Servername


    Hi all,

    strugling with an odd Problem here


    I do run a Windows 2019 Server with AD and DNS configured. Servername is properly configured in DNS and can be pinged from another device, but not resolved.


    As a result I cannot join the device to the domain.

    When trying a domain join, NetSetup.log shows the following result:
