We finally figured this out. If you have a url in the PATH which references the filer, this error will appear.
Thanks for the info, it helped. From: James Rankin [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, May 16, 2011 2:07 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Server service will not start on windows 2008 R2 enterprise I saw that error (ERROR_NOLOGON_WORKSTATION_TRUST_ACCOUNT, error 1808) before when I was having some problems with logon actions. I was trying to create shortcuts on a redirected desktop that pointed to a shared area on a NetApp filer. For some reason, the security context seemed to be a little screwed-up. I got around this by copying the shortcuts locally first and then moving them to the shared area later in the logon process. I'm a little confused as to what correlation the Server service could have with a shared area on your filer, though - AFAIK the Server service deals with hosting shares, rather than accessing them, that's the job of the Workstation service - but it seems a little coincidental. Do you have folder redirection configured in any way? Is there a drive being mapped out to the filer at login? Is there some sort of shared storage connected to the NetApp from the server? I also remember that this error was generated specifically when creating App-V shortcuts using AppSense, so I don't know if you are using either of these technologies as well. It might be an idea to run a Process Monitor as you try and start the Server service to see exactly what it is trying to do, and if it is trying to access a network location in some way.
