Would be a lot more useful if people said -
"I have Windows 2003 R2 32 bit running on the DOMAIN using ESXi 5.1"
This is more useful than having Windows AD/DNS experts asking me to troubleshoot, which I will still look into but I am more interested to hear from people who are running Windows 2003 R2 32 bit on an ESXi 5.1 server.
This way I can ask them what NIC type they used, machine compatilibity level, etc because once again these machines work on ESXi 5.0 on the SAME servers, DIFFERENT servers, SAME hostname, DIFFERENT hostname, DIFFERENT location, SAME location, etc so I do not have to do anything with ESXi 5.0. So still seems like a problem if I have to check settings ONLY when I install ESXi 5.1...
Now I have to troubleshoot AD/DNS ONLY when I install ESXi 5.1?!
I guess people do not see the problem here but hopefully someone else will find this discussion once they upgrade and throw in some suggestions...
