Curious Event viewer messages
I have been getting some entries in the event viewer for my Exch2K box (Win2K SP2, Exch2K SP1 member server)lately that I don't understand. Has anyone seen this? First I will see a warning - Source is MSExchangeSA, category is General and Event ID is 9186 - it states: Microsoft Exchange System Attendant has detected that the local computer is not a member of group 'cn=Exchange Domain Servers,cn=Users,dc=rmc,dc=edu'. System Attendant is going to add the local computer into the group. The current members of the group are 'CN=RMCMX1,OU=Servers,OU=Rmccomputers,DC=rmc,DC=edu; CN=NAV for Microsoft Exchange-TITAN,CN=Users,DC=rmc,DC=edu; '. The local computer is RMCMX1 and the message says that machine IS a member of the group. What the? Next I get the following error message - Source is MSExchangeSA, category is General and Event ID is 9187: Microsoft Exchange System Attendant failed to add the local computeras a member of the DS group object 'cn=Exchange Domain Servers,cn=Users,dc=rmc,dc=edu'. Please stop all the Microsoft Exchange services, add the local computer into the group manually and restart all the services. When I search the knowledge base I get 1 document that simply states that the Exchange server wont function properly if its not in the Exchange Domain Servers group. The computer account is in that group and I haven't noticed any e-mail problems but I really don't like these messages. I have received these every 15 minutes since October 7. I believe that is the day that I created the OU that the server account is now in. Until then it was in the default computers container but I want to implement uniform auditing and event viewer property policies (through GPOs) on all of my servers so I created the OU referenced in the logs. Has anyone seen this? Is it anything to worry about? Can it be fixed? Thanks all!

Have you tried removing and adding it to the group again?

RE: Curious Event viewer messages
The reason I asked is because the distinguishedName shown in the event log doesn't match the OU to which you said you moved the server.
