Although you've stated the server is domain-joined, it’s important to verify that the server is properly connected to the domain:

  • Check the Domain Status:
    • Open System Properties (right-click This PC > Properties) and check the Domain section to ensure it shows the correct domain name.
    • Use the following PowerShell command to confirm the domain join status:
    • Check DNS Configuration

    • WAC relies on DNS to communicate with domain controllers. Ensure the server running WAC can resolve domain names properly:

      • Verify DNS Settings:
        • Check the DNS settings on the server (Network & Internet > Ethernet > Properties > IPv4).
        • Make sure the DNS server is pointing to the correct domain controller’s IP address.
      • Test DNS Resolution:
