The user name and passoword aren't entered in the service logon, which is
set to the local system account, but within the application. The error
reported in the event log in an 1816 error.

The users were set up about 12 months ago with no password expiration
and the passwords have never changed since they were created,
furthermore if the server is rebooted then the they start up and
continue to work for a few days with no problems. In fact I only see the
error as the database package is closed down each night to allow the
backup and then the restart fails.

Hi

After running for a few days these packages refused to start up using
the username credentials that had worked previously.

Did you change the password of these users' accounts? Does the account
have password expiration limit?



In an attempt to resolve this I have transferred all 5 FMSO roles to a
new server along with the DNS server role. However I am still
experiencing the same problem

In all cases rebooting the machine, which is now a member server,
resolves the issue



event log errors?

I have a machine that used to hold all 5 FMSO roles and was both a DNS
server and DHCP server, along with an email package and database
package. The latter 2 ran as a service with dedicated username
specifically set up to run the service.

After running for a few days these packages refused to start up using
the username credentials that had worked previously.

In an attempt to resolve this I have transferred all 5 FMSO roles to a
new server along with the DNS server role. However I am still
experiencing the same problem

In all cases rebooting the machine, which is now a member server,
resolves the issue

Does anyone have any ideas were I should look next?
