Hi all,

Recently I've had several workstations come up with these event error logs (in chronological order):

Event Type:      Error
Event Source:      NETLOGON
Event Category:      None

Time:            11:19:50 AM
User:            N/A
Computer:      ABBOTT-MAIN
Description:
No Domain Controller is available for domain ABBOTT due to the following:
The RPC server is unavailable. .
Make sure that the computer is connected to the network and try again. If the problem persists, please contact your domain administrator.

I've read a few other topics and have tried re-syncing w32time to make sure all the clocks match, but I'm out of ideas at this point. The one workstation can't even log in, but if I check the system logs off of the domain (where it's able to log on) I don't see any errors when its trying to log on. On other workstations that are already logged in (and I don't dare log them out) i see those two errors in the system log. Also, I don't happen to see anything awry on the SBS 2003 server system logs either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I am concerned about doing this. Do I need to re-add the computer via the /connectcomputer/ wizard to retain all the SBS features and scripts? I don't think I do, but I just wanted to double check.

I will give this a shot and report back. I'm not at this site for a day or two.
Odd thing. Now I plug in the workstation that couldn't log in before and it works with no problems. ????! I'm dreading rootcausing this. What might cause these issues?

This is a one PDC domain, so even if I was using WINS and DNS, there's only one domain server to resolve to and it's set to be a static IP address. In any case, I'm not using WINS as far as I know.

I did actually double check to make sure the bios time was set correctly. I know that you can get auth failures if the time is off, so that was the first thing I checked. I'm starting to think that one of the network switches might be on the fritz.

Still investigating...thanks for the tips.
