I have a DC that is running 2008 R2 serverand I am having a couple of issues with. First off when I try to RDP into the server using my logon informatin it tells me that my username or password is incorrect. I cannot log onto the server physically because I get the same message. I have to reboot the server in order to logon with my credenials. I am at a loss as to why this may be happening. Another issue is that the Windows Time Service will not start, even after reboot. I have tried to setup an outside Time source but I'm not sure I've done it correctly. That could be why the service will not start. I followed the instructionsI found in a KB article. I am at a loss so any suggestions would be of great help. Thanks, Keith (klirette)

Could you please send the error IDs that are registred? Best regards.

Hello, let's start with ann unedited ipconfig /all from the server and the client you try to connect from. Is that the only DC in the domain or are there more then one?Best regards Meinolf Weber Disclaimer: This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties or guarantees , and confers no rights.

First of all I want to thank ALL that replied. Since it was a small network with only a few users I went ahead and ran dcpromo to demote the DC, restarted, and then ran dcpromo again to recreate the Domain. After that I just had to reconnect all the computers to the domain and now I am having no trouble, even my time issue seems to be corrected. If I have the same trouble I'll definitely look deeper into the situation. Thanks again, Keith
