…so I sit down with my handy copy of Ghost to image my web server before making some last minute updates on the way to the CS upgrade. Only when I go to logon, I get a message that the system is unable to contact a domain controller. Quite odd since I have two at home. So I logon to my DC, check the event viewer and it is solid red. I have spent a LONG time today troubleshooting only to find that hardware is a culprit.

So now I have a domain controller to work on, the CS site to build out, and that just gives me all the reason I need to wipe out the home network and go it again from scratch. Expect yet more down time in days to come.

 

Cheers!
