Error message using Netdiag.exe = NETDIAG.EXE - ENTRY POINT NOT FOUND

**ps3cheats** · 15-Mar-2007, 02:27 AM

I'm running a 2003 server which is also running the DHCP/DC/DNS/A-Directory all in one due to a tight budget. When preparing to install Exchange 2003 as the first exchange server on the same machine as this machine has never had exchange on before I'm using the prep tools DCdiag.exe which has no problems the server pass's all its tests, however its a completely differant story when running Netdiag.exe. The very instant you start NetDiag you get an error box which is Titled:

NETDIAG.EXE - ENTRY POINT NOT FOUND (the actuall error is)

The procedure entry point DnsGetPrimaryDomain_UTF8 could not be located in the dynamic link library DNSAPI.dll.

Ive used depends.exe which shows a whole range of errors, but I guess I'm just not geeky enough in this area to understand what the info it is giving out, obviously something is missing but I have no idea how to correct this, which means I cannot continue wh=ith the install of Exchange 2003.

Any knowledgeable ideas would be more than welcome as Ive searched every where for a solution & come up with total blanks.

I verified the list of tools shipped with Windows 2003 support tools from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9d467a69-57ff-4ae7-96ee-b18c4790cffd&DisplayLang=en

Looks like Microsoft is stopped shipping NetDiag.exe.

May be I got it from initial CDs of Windowos 2003.
