Mac Join Domain Node Name Not Found

Ldap tcp dc msdcs name entered domain so try connect to the home lab not to the win home lab.

Mac join domain node name not found. Errors that the account or object cannot be found. Add it to your dhcp scope dhcp option 015 dns domain name. Cannot join to domain.

When you write domain name in field domain client start find srv record in target domain on the default address. You can get the machine to join the domain if you specified the full domain name domain tld. The specified domain either does not exists or could not be contacted.

There can be issues with joining macs to a local domain and there can also be reverse dns issues to be aware of. This can be any domain in the forest but remember that the domain name is the dns namespace of the domain not the dns name of the domain controller. Using both of these tools i saw that my problem of joining the mac to the domain was caused by the tool not being able to create computer account in the active directory.

But you should fix the dns suffix. As i see from dcdiag win home lab it your domain controller you need enter domain name home lab. Similar to how a windows desktop would join an active directory domain.

In the computer id field enter the name of the active directory computer object to use for this mac os x computer. 2001 8000 10c8 3c00 1 this is the ipv6 address of the nic currently set to automatically assigned. Once i created the account by hand and tried to join domain again the tool informed me that the computer account already exists and asked whether i wanted to re use it.

When joining a new computer windows 10 pro laptop to the domain i see the following. With these things in mind there are definitely some things to consider before joining your mac to a windows domain.
