The error message I'm seeing is "The security database on the server does not have a computer account for this workstation trust relationship." There's nothing wrong with the trust relationship and I have removed a computer from the domain, deleted the AD account, and re-added it to the domain successfully and I still get the same message but only when I am trying to change my password. Below are all the things I have tried unsuccessfully:
- Removed the computer account from the domain, deleted the account, and re-added the computer to the domain.
- Tested with domain admin account.
- Tried changing my password logged in directly into a domain controller.
- Issue occurs both on manual password change or forced password change.
- Copied existing account and tried changing the password.
- Created brand new (not copied) account in AD and tried changing the password.
- Tried resetting password on multiple computers.
- Removing Windows updates mentioned online that may cause this issue.
The only things that have worked are:
- Changing a local user account's password.
- Changing a domain account password via AD Users and Computers.
Our workstations are Windows 7 SP1 and our servers are Windows 2008 R2 SP1.
