netdom

I have two servers on VMWare. One is a standard install of Server 2008 r2 and the other is Server 2008 core.

Server 2008's IP is: 192.168.186.135 and computer name is: SERVER01. This is a domain controller and has DNS installed along with Active Directory. The domain is called: contoso.com

Server 2008 Core's IP is: 192.168.186.137 and computer name is: SERVER02

They can both ping each other, but when I try running the following:

netdom join SERVER02 /domain:contoso.com

Results:

The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted.

The command failed to complete successfully.

I'm thinking it might be a DNS issue? I'm new to servers and I am teaching myself. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
