good morning list, I am getting a weird problem lately. Our AD architecture is made of 1 forest, 1 domain, 4 sites spanned through WAN links. There are approx. 2500 nodes in the forest, there are 2 DCs at each site, a DC is configured as GC at each site.
Randomly, with no apparent recurrent pattern, we get the eventID 5723(netlogon) error from some machines (i would say some 4-5 a day). ------------------ The session setup from the computer <computer name> failed because there is no trust account in the security database for this computer. The name of the account referenced in the security database is <computer name>$. The error code is 0xC000018B ------------------ The client is not able to authenticate to the DC anymore. The only (to me) known resolution is to rejoin the machine to the domain. Would anyone suggest me a resolution, or correct steps for troubleshooting? I've already checked on eventid.net, and looks like none of the suggestion is relevant with my architecture. We're running a native mode windows 2000 domain. The error code states that the computer account has been deleted. How can it this happen? How can i audit operation attempts on computer accounts? Thanks!!
