Bugs - Problem Connecting First Workstation To Windows Server 2008
Issue:
When you attempt to attach your workstation to a domain, you receive the following error:
 
Error Message
 
The following error occurred attempting to join the domain
An attempt to resolve the DNS name of a DC in the domain being joined has failed.  Please verify this client is configured to reach a DNS server that can resolve DNS names in the target domain.
 
Resolution:
To resolve this issue, I modified the DNS settings (network > Properties > Manage network connections > Local Area Connection > IPv4) to make the Preferred DNS entry point to the Server IP.  I also changed the Preferred DNS on the Worstation to point to the Server's IP address.
