Question

Thousands of Error 529 in security log

Asked by: TheHeadNerd

I get the below error message several thousand times a day.
Scenario: SBS 2003 Prem swing migration to new hardware. All workstations the same. During business hours, when users are on the internet working, these errors occur many times a minute for various workstations. Please note that the Domain and Workstation names are the same. However, the users ARE logged in to domain accounts. The administrator account on the workstations was never used after joining the domain. AV is Trend Micro WFBS advanced. AV clients were installed with a pull installation using the logged in user account (not administrator). The systems are functioning fine. I'd just like to know what's causing all these irritating entries. Side Note: All of the workstations use IE7 except one; which uses IE6 due to a retarded web site that is mission critical. The lone IE6 workstation never has a 529 error. It does access the internet frequently, but never has a 529 entry.

You say you performed a swing migration? Exactly as described in www.sbsmigration.com  documentation?

Or did you follow the Microsoft TechNet method?

I used the sbsmigration method. I've used it several times before, but this is the first time I've had this problem.

Not really an SBS tech, but a Logon Type Code 3 is simply an over the network connection....

Are you sure there are no services configured to run under the local admin's security context? Maybe something premigration was configured to run?

 

by: johnb6767Posted on 2009-06-20 at 16:17:05ID: 24675596

And you mention AV is installed, but any chance you have an infection that it is not seeing? I know its probably not, but have to ask....

 

by: TheHeadNerdPosted on 2009-06-21 at 09:24:31ID: 24677804

The AV was installed pre-migration. The errors somehow only seem to occur when the users are in the office and using their computers to access the various internet sites that they need for their daily business functions. Services on the local systems run as either local system or as network service.

Sorry that I abandoned you on this question last month.  I had some unexpected family obligations that required my attention and precluded me from my volunteer time here on EE.  I'm back now.

At any rate... I have reviewed this question and while I can't provide you a good reason why these errors didn't show up before the migration, I can certainly help you stop them from occuring.  There is a hotfix available from Microsoft which should resolve the issue:
