Bind 10.4 to 2003 AD

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I am having some trouble getting some new macs to connect to our existing 2003 domain

Details are as follows;

We have a 2003 server from what i can gather the forest is dominican.local, and the domain is dominican.local.

On the macs we are running 10.4.2 (have tired with 10.3.8) when i go into the directory access plug-in and try dthe macs to the domain, using forest ( automatic in 10.4) and domain dominican.local and dominican and alll caps etc, it gives me the error “An invalid Domain and Forest combination was specified. You should enter a fully qualified DNS name for the domain and forest ( e.g., ads.company.com)

We currently have about 150 pcs running fin on the domain, but havent made any changes at this stage for the macs.
I dotn have a great deal of experience using 2003 server.

Can anyone help, plz plz im losing all my hair
cheers
