Tim,
I am seeing this in our environment on occasion as well. We are running 2
W2k3 DCs at our main site. 4 Remote sites have W2K DCs and 1 remote site
has a W2k3 DC. All the DCs are Global catalogs at the remote sites and our
main site.
Once in a while a Windows XP PC at our main site will authenticate against a
remote site DC. Typically we'll see issues with the computer account when
this happens.
Have you been able to find a resolution?
Thanks,
Jeff
