Hi guys,
One of my Windows 2008 SP2 Servers suffered a strange issue. The others don't have this issue.
The server is added into domian, and all the domian controller are windws 2008 Server.
The symptom include:
1. We added some domain IDs into local administrators ever, but now the IDs display as their SSID.
2. When I want to add some new domain ID into local administrators, but I find the server cann't read Active Directory. The Entire Directory displayed as blank.
3. As default, when i add domain ID into any local groups, th line "From this location" displayed as its hostname.
Generally speaking, here should display domain name.
See the next screenshot.
I have reset the computer name via ADUC, and I also tried re-join into domain.
All the DCs are pingable from this server.
But the issue is same.
So the issue is: the server unable to read active directory.
I saw some warning log from application, such as Event ID:6000
The winlog notification subscriber <GPClient> was unavailable to handle a notification event.
Event ID:502
Certificate Service Client failed to register group policy notifications. Error code: 2147944153
But I think the root cause is "the server unable to read active directory."
Did anyone ever see this issue and know how to fix it.
