(Last update 3/9/2009): The Data portion of the event contains an error code and an error description that might offer some additional details about this problem. Eugene Booyens (Last update 3/9/2009): Error code 81, Server Down - This was reported as being recorded on a multi-homed server where the TCP/IP stack configured for the second network card was pointing to itself as DNS server instead of the IP address for the first network card. In my case, I had this on a SBS 2008. The M939820 article applies if you have other errors as well. T727283 describes an instance of this error but the error that I'm getting (code 82) isn't documented in this article. I think I've fixed my issue by editing hosts file - it had an entry for the server in there. Had a look at another SBS2008 server and it didn't have this entry in hosts file. Deleted so only localhost remains looks like error has gone away will see! Mihai Andrei (Last update 11/30/2008): As per Microsoft: "This problem occurs because the version number of the KRBTGT account increases when you perform an authoritative restoration. The KRBTGT account is a service account that is used by the Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) service". See M939820 for a hotfix applicable to Microsoft Windows Server 2003. |
