Question : DC DNS Fails
Over the weekend, one of my additional DC's began having some odd errors in the event logs and eventually the DNS server became disfunctional and could only be fixed by a reboot. After about a day the same issue began resulting in a reboot. Other than being an additional DC, it provides print services. It is a Windows 2003 R2 x64 install with all the current updates applied. Here are the errors from the event logs. The 1053 error says there isn't enough space, but the server has plenty of free disc space and 7 of the 8 gigs of ram appear to be free. Any suggestions would be very helpful since rebooting the server as a fix won't get me too far :)
Thanks,
Eric
