Hi,
I have just added a
new domain controller to my Active Directory domain and I am receving the
following error in the system log:
Event
Type: Error
Event Source: SAM
Event Category: None
Event ID: 16650
Date: 8/25/2004
Time: 1:38:47 PM
User: N/A
Computer: FTCLSRV-DC001
Description:
The account-identifier allocator failed to initialize properly. The record data contains the NT error code that caused the failure. Windows 2000 will retry the initialization until it succeeds; until that time, account creation will be denied on this Domain Controller. Please look for other SAM event logs that may indicate the exact reason for the failure.

Also, when I try to
create and user, group, or computer I get the following error
message:
Windows cannot
create the object because:
The directory
service was unable to allocate a relative identifier.
I verified that my
RID master is online and working. This is not the
problem.
Has anyone seen this
message in the past?
Thanks for the
help,
Raymond
