Problem : The advanced page cannot be opened because of following error: The server is not operational

Problem : The advanced page cannot be opened because of following error: The server is not operational

I have 2 servers, both 2K3 enterprise edition.  1 is a terminal server, the other is a domain controller.  On the terminal server, when I try to share a folder and set permissions, I select the domain location, then click advance and receive the error message:

The advanced page cannot be opened because of following error: The server is not operational

I can go to local users & groups and access active directory just fine.  Just not when trying to set folder permissions.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

I had the same problem, what i did to resolve was that i had forgotten to put the ip address of my dns server which is my domain controller in the the option use the following DNS ADDRESS  in the TCIP options
