My Primary Domain Controller does not work with other laptop

1

I have configured my primary domain controller in Ubuntu 11.10.

To make sure that it worked, I used a Windows 7 client in my friend laptop and I can successfully log in as a user from my domain.

But when I try to test another laptop it failed with this notification.

An Active Directory Domain Controller (AD DC) for the domain"MYDOMAIN" could not be contacted. Ensure that the domain name is typed correctly. if the name is correct.click Details for trouble shooting information.

What's wrong? I configured the failed client same as the client that was success, and I typed the domain in correctly.

Do you have samba configured to automatically add the machine accounts? Did you set up DNS correctly as per the Samba PDC guide? Perhaps [edit] and add your smb.conf and dns settings. – Paul – 2012-06-11T12:33:31.753

Check if your DC is responding on port 53 (default port for windows-based DC), if not this could be the problem.
