    Unhappy Crucial Domain Problem

    Guys!
    Everything was working fine when i came to office today and suddenly i came to know that the Group policy is not working properly and there was some other error messages in even log. So upon checking few settings and updating the DNS settings i made the worst mistake and restarted the server resulting now everything is messed up.

    I can't see network conenction and upon click refresh in network connection window i get error message "the folder is unable to retrieve the list of network adapters on your machine, please make sure that the network connections service is enabled and running"

    when i checked the services almost everything is in not running state and upon running the services like netlogon i get the error message "Error 1068 the dependency service or group failed to start"

    I am not been able to see the properties of any service as well.

    This machine is PDC, running DNS only.

    I am in a mess and need help, if you require further information do let me know.

    I made a changing in windows firewall: Allow remote administration exception option and enabled in using mmc, now i want to revert and just to see if that was the issue. But again i can't open the properties of this option.

    Well know i am able to see things but still one issue remaining, when i try to ping myserver from the same machine it resolve OLD IP address on the other hand when client ping myserver they get the orignal IP of the server. I run nslookup and its working fine, i think somehow the server IP got updated and still the record is not update in DNS.

    I have manually update the records but no use.

    Regarding not been able to access anything was the rpc logging error, this was resolved by changing the login account detail through registry: -

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\RpcSs\
    Object name key is logon account for the service.
    Changed it to original value "NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService

    But still that IP resolution issue is not resolved and still server resolving to old IP.
