ADWS Critical Error

$

Hi,

I installed Windows Server 2012 Essentials as a replacement of WHS v1. Installation went smooth and now is all running normal except a couple of things I don't know how to solve.

I have 1 server with WSE 2012 + 3 client PC all running Windows 8 pro and are part of the same domain.

For WSE 2012 I just followed the Standard installation and set up a domain.

The issue comes after I installed the Health report Add-in and each time the server restarts I get the following 2 errors:

------------------------------

ADWS

This computer is now hosting the specified directory instance, but Active
Directory Web Services could not service it. Active Directory Web Services will
retry this operation periodically.

Directory instance:
NTDS

Directory instance LDAP port: 389

Directory instance SSL
port: 636

------------------

DNS
The DNS server is waiting for Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) to
signal that the initial synchronization of the directory has been completed. The
DNS server service cannot start until the initial synchronization is complete
because critical DNS data might not yet be replicated onto this domain
controller. If events in the AD DS event log indicate that there is a problem
with DNS name resolution, consider adding the IP address of another DNS server
for this domain to the DNS server list in the Internet Protocol properties of
this computer. This event will be logged every two minutes until AD DS has
signaled that the initial synchronization has successfully completed.

----------------

If I check the services, both DNS and ADWS are running. If I go to Server Manager and check under AD DS I see the same ADWS error and it says the error code is 1202. When I check DNS on Server Manager I also see a warning saying that DNS could not be started (Warning ID 4013).

My qüestions are:

1. Is this important in a home environment?

2. Everything Works ok, or it seems so, do I need to fix it?

3. How can I fix it?

And just to clarify, I am not an IT guy, I just try to set up a low maintenance server to keep my files and backups centralized. So all this errors are new to me.

Thanks a lot for your help.
