Weird LDAP Errors... Tried many things.


Recommended Posts

I am helping my new client fix a number of networking problems on

their 2K3 network.

 

One of the issues, that has been plaguing them for months is the LDAP

error event ID 40960:

>>The Security System detected an authentication error for the server LDAP/<servername@domain...>. The failure code from authentication protocol Kerberos was "The attempted logon is invalid. This is either due to a bad username or authentication information.<<<

 

Similarly, they get an error: EVENT LOG System

EVENT TYPE Warning

SOURCE LSASRV

CATEGORY SPNEGO (Negotiator)

EVENT ID 40960

The Security System detected an authentication error for the server

LDAP/<server name>. The failure code from authentication protocol

Kerberos was "The attempted logon is invalid. This is either due to a

bad username or authentication information.

(0xc000006d)".

 

 

And: "The Security System could not establish a secured connection

with the server ldap/<server name>. No authentication protocol was

available."

 

I've tried resetting the passwords on the DHCP and DNS services on the

failing servers. I've tried auditing all accounts to see which one is

getting a failed login, but no accounts correspond with the timing of

the LDAP failure.

 

Any suggestions on how to fix?

 

Thanks~!

Nice big list of things to try:

or maybe this is the reason why:
