I found I needed to set "Network access: Allow anonymous SID/Name translation"  
to "Enabled". This is required to allow translation across trusts but then 
again, your NT servers are in the same domain as the DCs (I assume).

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Nt v4.0 in 2k Domain Issue


The first that I thought of was the RestrictAnonymous registry configuration on 
W2K DCs. (http://www.jsifaq.com/SUBF/TIP2600/rh2625.htm) (QUOTE: -> Never set 
RestrictAnonymous to a 2 in a mixed-mode environment that includes down-level 
clients)

Also have a look at "Client, service, and program incompatibilities that may 
occur when you modify security settings and user rights assignments"
(http://support.microsoft.com/?id=823659) Especially take a look at the 
configuration with the "Network access" words. Maybe you recognize a 
configuration that is the source of your problem

Subject: [ActiveDir] Nt v4.0 in 2k Domain Issue

All,

Recently we've added another 6 or so domain controllers to our Windows 2k 
(Native Mode) domain.  All servers are using the same configuration (SP3, bunch 
of hotfixes).

We have started getting reports of NT v4.0 Servers "falling off" the domain. 
Users are unable to log onto the server with a domain account, but can with a 
local account.  When I look at the usrmgr entries for the Administrators group 
(for example), all of the domain accounts are listed as "Account Unknown".  All 
NT v4.0 Servers are SP6a.

I've removed one of the NT machines from AD, deleted the computer account, 
re-added it, and that seems to work.  When the machine reboots however, the 
problems come back.  I've used the NLTEST utilities from the reskit, but keep 
getting Access Denied errors when using the SC_QUERY and SC_RESET commands, so 
cant see what server the machine has tried to form a secure channel with.

Now......If I turn off all the new domain controllers, and force the server to 
use one of the old ones, the problem goes away, so obviously there is some 
difference between the DC's.

I've gone through technet for hours, google, done file diffs on registry dumps, 
and a bunch of other things, but cant see why a machine would be able to form a 
secure channel with one domain controller, but not another.  I initially 
suspected it to be the SMB signing issue I've had before, but all domain 
controllers are set to the same values.

I'm starting to wonder if it may be this problem: 
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;275020

Could anyone possibly shed some light on this one ?  We are trying to replace 
the old Domain Controllers (Dual PII 700's) with new ones (Dual Operons), but 
at this stage, I cant remove any of the old DC's due to this problem.

Our Windows 2000 / 2003 Servers don't appear to be having any issues with the 
new servers, and things like Exchange are quite happily using them for GC's etc.

Obviously getting rid of NT v4.0 is the preferred solution, however that wont 
be completed until about September.

TIA

Glenn
