To join a domain 1. Connect to the D2D Web Management Interface, navigate to the NAS - CIFS Server page, click Edit and choose AD from the drop-down menu. Provide the name of the domain that you wish to join e.g "mydomain.local" 2. Select Update. If the domain controller is found, a pop-up box will request credentials of a user with permission to join the domain. (Note that joining or leaving the domain will result in failure of any backup or restore operations that are currently running.) Provide credentials (username and password) of a domain user that has permission to add computers to the domain and click Register. 3. If successful, a message is displayed and the CIFS Server screen is displayed. More about DNS Normally joining the Active Directory Domain updates the DNS entries automatically. DNS is an essential component of Active Directory. NOTE: If there are problems check that the D2D Backup System has an entry in the DNS (Domain Name System) server. Use the command line to check that the D2D hostname resolves to an ip address and vice versa. (Use nslookup and nslookup .) After joining the domain, the DNS server should be automatically updated with Forward and Reverse Lookup zone entries, however, some DNS configurations do not allow this. In this case, the user must also configure the domain's DNS server to be able to correctly manage the D2D shares, as follows: 10 Configure the D2D CIFS server

More about DNS
Normally joining the Active Directory Domain updates the DNS entries automatically. DNS is an
essential component of Active Directory.
NOTE:
If there are problems check that the D2D Backup System has an entry in the DNS (Domain
Name System) server. Use the command line to check that the D2D hostname resolves to an ip
address and vice versa. (Use
nslookup <IP address>
and
nslookup <D2D hostname>
.)
After joining the domain, the DNS server should be automatically updated with Forward and
Reverse Lookup zone entries, however, some DNS configurations do not allow this. In this case,
the user must also configure the domain’s DNS server to be able to correctly manage the D2D
shares, as follows:
