Windows 2000 Server repeated event

[Guest mig1980]

Good day everyone. I have an issue that has been ongoing for quite some

time. Every 3 minutes or so I get an system event from Source: Userenv

and states "Windows cannot obtain the domain controller name for your

computer network. Return Value (59)" The weird thing is that this is

the domain controller. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is

happening? This has been going on since day 1 of this server being

live.

 

Thanks in advance.

Thank you very much for the info. I will try this out tomorrow. The

Event ID is 1000. I took a look and printed some information on the

possible solution of this issue. Thansk again.

Start with DNS configuration

If that is configured correctly, then if you have multiple Nics disable all

but one

Could also be a ghosted nic

 

To check for a ghosted Nic

run these two commands from a cmd prompt

Set Devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1

Devmgmt.msc

Click on view\show hidden devices

Under you network you will see a light green nic

If you only see the RasAsync adapter with a light green icon leave it alone

If you see nics with that icon, right click and uninstall them

 

Finally upgrade your Nic drivers.

 

Thanks
