Facing Error A Domain Controller For The Domain Cannot Be Contacted When Trying To Connect PC To DNS Server.

This error occurs due to the DNS misconfiguration. The IP address and preferred DNS address of the client should be same. Your DC should be reachable.

To solve the error:

1. Click on the network symbol in your PC and open ‘Network and Sharing Center.’
2. Select your Network Adapter and in the status click on ‘Properties.’
3. In the next window, Choose IPv4 and open properties.
4. Then in IPv4 window, go to ‘Advanced TCP/IP Settings.’
5. Next, select the ‘DNS’ tab and click ‘Add’ under the ‘DNS server address.’
6. In the pop-up window, enter the IP address of your DC, then press ‘OK.’
7. If necessary, restart your computer to apply the settings.
