Question : DCOM got error "Logon failure" error on DC
|
|
I'm getting the following every hour, on the dot, on a Global Catalog DC (holding FSMO roles). It relates to an account servacc that was set up by some support engineers a while back. How can I find out what password DCOM is trying to log the server on as, and either change the account it is using, or match up the passwords?
Event Type: Error Event Source: DCOM Event Category: None Event ID: 10004 Date: 4/1/2008 Time: 9:42:56 AM User: N/A Computer: 2KSVR Description: DCOM got error "Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password. " and was unable to logon DOMAIN\servacc in order to run the server: {3E2E4965-2518-40A4-A72B-95FCE2809D03}

Ended up moving the Sophos enterprise management software to a new server as part of a migration - this has resolved the problem. I learned a lot though, so some points on the way shortly!
