title: DNS REquest Timed out
body: <p>I am running Windows Server 2008 R2 Active Directory with DNS. I set my AD server DNS to 127.0.0.1</p>
  
  <p>I am able to ping multiple websites. However, I am unable to join a computer to this domain and getting error "The Network Path was not found", yet the computer can ping the domain just fine and DNS is pointing to AD server in network settings</p>
  
  <p>When I go to the AD server and run the following, I noticed I get:</p>
  
  <pre><code>C:\Users\Administrator&gt;nslookup mydomain.sys
  Server:  localhost
  Address:  127.0.0.1
  
  DNS request timed out.
      timeout was 2 seconds.
  DNS request timed out.
      timeout was 2 seconds.
  Name:    mydomain.sys
  Address:  10.70.160.247
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How do I fix this? Why am I getting that error?</p>
