Hi every onei m new to this forumi have a problem. we have windows 2000 domain controller and windows 2003 as ADC and windows XP as workstation.When we try tolog on domain on client computer its gives the following error no doamin controller is available and it gives the following message on the domin controller in event viewer with events Id 5790The session setup from the computer computername failed to authenticate. The name of account refrenced in the security database is computername. The following error occuredsometime this problem arise when we try to join a computer on the domain

hi there,based on the error message i would like you to perform the following actiona) make sure on windows xp workstation point DNS server to appropriate PDC and set the secondary DNS server for ADC b)Verify that the computer account exists.c) try to un-join and re-join the client from the domain.d) This problemcan also caused by Netlogon trying to load before the DNS server had started,Modify the registry to make Netlogon dependant on DNS. Go to this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon" and modify the DependOnService string adding DNS after LanmanWorkstatione) It might be that the computer accounts themselves are corrupt. You cantest by removing the computer from the domain, delete the computer account,then add the computer back to the domain and let the computer account berecreated.f) is this issue happening only on one client or on multiple clients ?sainath windows driver development.

Hello,this sounds like a connection problem, mostly based on DNS. Please verify that you use on all domain machines only the domain DNS server on the NIC and not your ISPs DNS server. Please post an unedited ipconfig /all from the DCs and a problem client, so we can exclude that.Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
