  • 工作学习 / IT技术讨论 / NT Domain Help... "Unable to find a domain controller for this domain." WIN98 + NT4.0. When I wanted to add another user to my NT, I got the message above. Did I lose my domain? I checked the following... (details in)
    I installed my PC with win98 and WinNt. They work together well untill I wanted to add another user to my NT. The message is like title.

    I open the USER MANAGER FOR DOMAIN. The message is like this:
    "The network path was not found. Do you select another domain to administrator?" I select YES.

    In fact, I have only one domainwhose name is mydomain in my pc. Mydomain is listed in the window "Select Domain". I have no choice except Mydomain. A message poped out: "You have not entered a valid selection."

    I formatted the harddrive and installed the win98 first then WinNt. The problem is still there.

    Environment: Celeron400,128M,SOTEK sl-65fv(VIA693), copyright win98 and winnt. 98&nt all are fat16.

    thank you!
    • I do not remmeber something in detail. I think your NT must be a NT Server and you did not selected your NT Server as the primary domain controller in the domain "Mydomain" when you installed your NT Server.
      I have not done NT setup for a long time. I do not remmeber something in detail.
      I think your NT must be a NT Server and you did not selected your NT Server as the primary domain controller in the domain "Mydomain" when you installed your NT Server.
      Another way for you to solve this problem is to intall your NT as a NT Workstation.
      If you have tried what I suggested above, please let me know the result, so I can know if the memory chips or harddisks in my brain still work well. Thank you!
      • Thank you, HH. i'll try later.
    • I think you installed nt server on your pc , but you select nt server as a domain server when nt let you select which server type you will be use (to be continued )
      if you only one pc , it is not necessary to take nt server as a domain server, domain server can control all pc in the doman .in a domain , it can only have one primary domain server , but can have some secondary doman server and many common servers . you should select nt as a common server . nt server have some services which is not in nt workstation.(for example nt server has IIS , nt workstatin only has PWS) , if you do need a domain server , you must setup it as a primary domain server if you only one pc . and check the network card and protocol are installed and configures right .
      if you have not a network card , you can install a MS loopback network card as if you really have a network card , but you can not communicate with other pc.
      • Dear Guest, thank you very very very much...... It's the key. My NT work well now after installing MS lookack Adapter. In fact, I have no NIC in my PC. thank you! good luck!
