NetBT Domain 0x1C Name Fails to Add All #DOM IP Addresses (130273)

SYMPTOMS

When Netlogon sends discovery mailslots to find a domain controller in a trusted domain, it fails to send directed mailslots to all the domain controllers defined in the LMHOSTS file with the trusted domain name.

You can see the results in the following sample LMHOSTS file and trace. Even though TTOWN5 is defined as an AMERICA Domain Controller, it is never sent a directed mailslot for Netlogon, therefore it may never be used for authentication by a trusting domain.

LMHOSTS file contents:

   144.249.168.234 CIMCON       #DOM:AMERICA        #PRE
   144.249.168.104 TTOWN1       #DOM:AMERICA        #PRE
   144.249.13.207  TTOWN2       #DOM:AMERICA        #PRE
   144.249.168.105 TTOWN3       #DOM:AMERICA        #PRE
   144.249.169.16  TTOWN4       #DOM:AMERICA        #PRE
   144.249.157.21  TTOWN5       #DOM:AMERICA        #PRE
