Re: Active Directory 2003 - Restore - The system could not log y

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi all-

Thanks for your response.

1. The user account and password is same as that of production system. I
didn't change the password before or after taking the backup.

2. The user account is named Administrator Account part of Administrator Group

3. Using the same named administrator account, I can login to the production
Active directory setup without any issue.

4. The error is sam what I have mentioed. I am logging to the AD server
locally with named administrator after restoring the system state.

5. I have noticed that in restore mode, I can able to logon to the system
using DS restore password and checked the nelogon and syslog share is
missing. I have recreated the shared and rebooted. But, the system is not
accepting the user id and password.

6. The test server where I restore the production system state is identical
hardware. Both are HP ML350 G3 server with same hardware configuration using
the same image.
