I just set up a 2008 R2 as DC, and DNS. Both worked fine, DNS works fine forward and reverse lookup.

Now I wanted to install DHCP. As soon as the installation of the role is finished, I get this Event-ID Error 1046: Link

When I first set it up there was also a Event-ID 1059 Error: Link

The dhcp server is authorized. I don't know what else I should do. Getting crazy here, hope you guys can help me.

and I assume its not handing out ip addresses correct? On the dhcp server do a nslookup fqdn of the domain as in companyname.com or maybe sub.companyname.com etc... – tony roth Sep 18 '11 at 18:14

Try some of these: http://www.eventid.net/display.asp?eventid=1059&eventno=3795&source=DhcpServer&phase=1

Look at the DNS configuration and check wheater your primary DNS server is Domain Controllers ip address.
