Hello Oli,

If you press the button with the paper on the event itself (right corner), then you have the complete entry with the important number and source. You have only copied the error itslef.

Hi Meinolf

Here are the 2 event log entries for the error codes I am seeing -

A Kerberos Error Message was received:
on logon session
Client Time:
Server Time: 11:18:8.0000 2/3/2008 Z
Error Code: 0x7 KDC_ERR_S_PRINCIPAL_UNKNOWN
Extended Error:
Client Realm:
Client Name:
Server Realm: SH.COM
Server Name: V-SHAD2.sh.com
Target Name: V-SHAD2.sh.com@xxxxxx
Error Text:
File: 9
Line: ae0
Error Data is in record data.
A Kerberos Error Message was received:
on logon session
Client Time:
Server Time: 11:12:29.0000 2/3/2008 Z
Error Code: 0xd KDC_ERR_BADOPTION
Extended Error: 0xc00000bb KLIN(0)
Client Realm:
Client Name:
Server Realm: SH.COM
Server Name: host/v-ws-sql1.sh.com
Target Name: host/v-ws-sql1.sh.com@xxxxxx
Error Text:
File: 9
Line: ae0
Error Data is in record data.
The server which is logging these 2 entries is a SQL2005 SP 2 running
Windows 2003 Ent SP2.

We have 5 domain controllers in 2 sites. 3 in our HQ and 2 in our DR -
All Windows 2003 Ent SP2.

This is the only server logging these types of Kerberos errors. There
are no reported errors in the event logs on our domain controllers.

Kerberos logging in turned off on the SQL box. I am seeing the logging
of this entry a lot throughout the day. I have referenced this doc
from TechNet which states the Server is not found in the Kerberos
database. Where is this database and how can I check it's integrity?

I look forward to seeing you opinion

Thanks

Oli

Hi,

I am seeing this error message in event viewer and cannot get to the
bottom of this.

I've looked on the net but theres no resolution - can any one help?

I have 2 errors -

0x7 (KRB_ERR_S_PRINCIPAL_UNKNOWN) "Server not found in Kerberos
database" 0xd (KDC_ERR_BADOPTION) "KDC cannot accommodate requested
option."

Which kinds of makes sense. If the server isn;t in kerberos Db then
it cannot accomdate the requested option.

How can I check the kerberos database to make sure the server in
question is
valid. And is the kerberos databse held on my domain controllers?
I'm a little lost!
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
Oli
