Event ID: 4625 (Security - Audit Failure) on Server 2008 SP1 Enterprise with Exchange 2007 SP1

Hi,

I have just installed Server 2008 SP1 Enterprise with Exchange 2007 SP1 installed on it. Since I have installed Exchange on the Server the below error appears in the Security Event Log every 30 seconds. I have copied details of the event error below.

Does anyone have any ideas as to how to fix this problem. I have found minimal solutions to this problem on the Internet, but the little I have found is that many have said they reinstalled their OS and Exchange and the error did not appear anymore. I dont want to go down this path unless I really really have to. Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.

SVRES is the name of the Server.

Thanks
Craig

Hi henjoh09,

I installed Exchange Rollup Update 4. That did the trick. Problem resolved. Thanks for your response.

Cheers Craig
