Connection to Domain Controller - Network Path not Found
Hi,
I am trying to connect my Windows 10 PC to my DC, I have my DNS configured correctly. When I try to connect this PC I see the "Network Path not Found" error.
I believe this is something to do with my home network router as when I connect my computer to my mobile hotspot I can connect to the domain with no errors. However, I have managed to connect a MacBook to the DC on the same network with no hitch.
So I believe this is something to do with different settings on Windows and MacOS for this network. I can not for the life of me figure out what could be wrong.
The router is a FRITZ!Box 7530 AX (https://en.avm.de/)
Any help in this matter is appreciated.
I'd check to make sure the domain controller and problem member both have the static ip address of DC listed for DNS and no others such as router or public DNS.
- VirexenGroupCopper ContributorMy DC has 127.0.0.1 listed for the DNS, the MacOS device connected to the DC from the same network with no issues. I will check the windows DNS settings again.
Your domain controller should have it's own static ip address listed primary and loopback (127.0.0.1) listed as secondary.
