You have to have DNS in order to have a Windows Active Directory domain......no
if's, and's, or but's about it. It should display your username, not your full name,
this is normal. Problems logging in like you describe are usually related to improperly
configured DNS. Not having an IP for your DNS server would be my first guess as
to the cause. As I stated, DNS is integral to an active directory domain and you
have to be able to contact the DNS server for it to work properly.
