The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Replication Issue: The target principal name is incorrect

Asked by Maxwellb in Windows Networking, Microsoft Server, Active Directory

Tags: name, target, principal, incorrect

Hi experts,

A while back, I set up a 2K3 machine in anticipation of a new branch opening - the opening date got moved a few months back and now when I started it up after a few months being shut down, I am having replication problems. Everything was working before I shut it down. The new office is in a different site.  Specifically, when I try a manual replicate in AD sites and services from any server in the first site I get the error message, "The following error occurred during the attempt to contact the domain controller Server01. The target principal name is incorrect". As well, when I enter the UNC path to any other machine, I get this error, " Logon failure: the target account name is incorrect". I thought the problem might have occurred because of the daylight savings change - but even after I installed the patch the same problems occurred. I only have one domain in total - no child domains. The event viewer is filled to the brim with KCC and Kerbios errors - specifically, " 1865", "1311", "1566". I can ping the other machines fine, even put their IP address in place of UNC and I will get a share listing of the remote computer.

I ran a dcdiag on it and got these results:
