Servers logging Event ID: 5807
We have a Windows 2003 domain, and the DC's are logging Event ID: 5807 in the System log. The error reads During the past 4.22 hours there have been 5 connections to this Domain Controller from client machines whose IP addresses don't map to any of the existing sites in the enterprise. Those clients, therefore, have undefined sites and may connect to any Domain Controller including those that are in far distant locations from the clients. A client's site is determined by the mapping of its subnet to one of the existing sites. To move the above clients to one of the sites, please consider creating subnet object(s) covering the above IP addresses with mapping to one of the existing sites. The names and IP addresses of the clients in question have been logged on this computer in the following log file '%SystemRoot%\debug\netlog on.log' and, potentially, in the log file '%SystemRoot%\debug\netlog on.bak' created if the former log becomes full. The log(s) may contain additional unrelated debugging information. To filter out the needed information, please search for lines which contain text 'NO_CLIENT_SITE:'. The first word after this string is the client name and the second word is the client IP address. The maximum size of the log(s) is controlled by the following registry DWORD value 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM \CurrentCo ntrolSet\S ervices\Ne tlogon\Par ameters\Lo gFileMaxSi ze'; the default is 20000000 bytes. The current maximum size is 20000000 bytes. To set a different maximum size, create the above registry value and set the desired maximum size in bytes.
The machines listed in the log files are located on a WAN link, and have no server at that location. The subnets are listed in the Sites and Services, and are associated with the server and site they should be logging in to. The 5807 error is being logged on servers from other sites.
Any ideas of how to fix this would be appreciated.
