Problem Logging in With a Particular User's Account



Hello,

SBS2003, Windows XP Client.

I have a computer that I am having problems with when logging in using a
particular account. When the user logs in, he gets a message saying, that
the roaming profile could not be found, so it was logging him in using a
local profile. Then, it cannot find the profile, because its not on that
machine, so it presents a message saying it is logging in with a temporary
profile.

I had these problems yesterday, and couldn't figure it out, so I reformatted
and reinstalled the OS. After that, I am still having the problem. No I
don't know what to do.

I checked the event viewer and got some entries that really scared me. Here
they are:

IN THE SYSTEM LOG

EventID: 40960
Source: LSASRV
Category: SPNEGO (Negotiator)
Description:
The Security System detected an attempted downgrade attack for server
cifs/HI-SERVER. The failure code from authentication protocol Kerberos was
"There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon
request.
(0xc000005e)".

EventID: 40961
Source: LSASRV
Category: SPNEGO (Negotiator)
Description:
The Security System could not establish a secured connection with the server
cifs/HI-SERVER. No authentication protocol was available.

IN THE APPLICATION LOG

EventID: 1521
Source: Userenv
Category: None
Description:
Windows cannot locate the server copy of your roaming profile and is
attempting to log you on with your local profile. Changes to the profile
will not be copied to the server when you logoff. Possible causes of this
error include network problems or insufficient security rights. If this
problem persists, contact your network administrator.

DETAIL - The system detected a possible attempt to compromise security.
Please ensure that you can contact the server that authenticated you.

EventID: 1511
Source: Userenv
Category: None
Description:
Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on with a temporary
profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log off.


I did some research and made sure the "Change primary DNS suffix when domain
membership changes" box under Computer Name Changes was checked. Short of
that, I am pretty clueless. I know this must be some sort of DNS problem,
but it only seems to happen when that specific user logs in. Also, I know
nothing about DNS, so please be gentle. If I need to clarify, please let me
know.

Thanks in advance,

Chris
