    Windows 10 can't join domain, can't ping gateway domain controller could not be contacted


    Hi,I am a Sys Admin, been for 25+ years and this one has me stumped. I have a Windows 10 machine that has the proper IP configuration and was once a member of the domain. We had an issue where a DC went offline due to VM snapshots taking up space. We resolved that issue. I took this machine out of the domain and tried to put it back in but it fails saying "no domain controllers could be contacted". I can ping both domain controllers no problem. The message says it identified domain controllers but could not contact them:The following domain controllers were identified by query however no domai

    :)

    Question:- How to add client to domain from domain controller side?

    Hi Guys,

    -I have domain called lab.com created on virtual machine Windows Server 2008
    -I have added a client machine Linux machine rhel6 to domain lab.com in /etc/host file
    -I am able to ping DC from linux machine by IP and hostname .
    But from DC I can only ping Linux machine by IP address and not by its hostname "rhel61.lab.com"

    I don't want to add linux machine entry to DC's hosts file as it is DC so it should resolve it

    But I wish to know what step or doings I am missing from DC side that I am not able to ping linux machine by its hostname.

    Please suggest.

    Thanks.

    Join domain option missing

    You need to be logged on as a local administrator

    Contact the domain administrator for specifics

    Join a Windows 10 PC or Device to a Domain. On the Windows 10 PC go to then click Join a domain. Enter the Domain name and click Next. You should have the correct domain info, but if not, contact your Network Administrator. Enter account
    information which is used to authenticate on the Domain then click OK.

    Join Windows 10 PC to a Domain  


    @rseiler,

    I just finished clean installing Windows 10 Enterprise build 17093 in a VM using a local account, and it still has the same steps in the tutorial for me.

    Is your PC already joined to a domain?
