Failed to join AD

Post by darthchet » 2017/07/24 11:33:43

Hello all, I am new to CentOS and am having an issue connecting to a Windows AD server.

I admin two different closed networks that run a variety of different OS'. I built a file server with CentOS 7 and connected it to the alpha.local network, as that network holds our repositories for installations. After setting up everything I needed, I attempted to change all of my settings to add to our bravo.local network. This includes the /etc/nsswitch.conf, /etc/hostname, /etc/hosts, and /etc/samba/ files to reflect the new network domain. After adjusting my settings, I added the new server into my DHCP on AD.

I have tried running

Code: Select all

sudo net ads join -U administrator
to join AD. I keep getting a "failed to join domain failed to find dc for BRAVO"

As I said, I am new to CentOS and feel that my error might be something that I am simply overlooking. Any advice?
