Re: Event ID 537 and Kerberos



Hi Dan,

Thanks for updating.

Since event 537 appears after you applied ISA 2004 SP2, the problem may be
related to ISA, not virus or hacks.

Please take your time collect the following information for further
research, thanks for your time and coorperation.

1. Collect the ISA firewall logs so that we can identify the cause from the
log:

Enable the full firewall logging option:
a. Open ISA 2004 management console.
b. Expand the server node and highlight 'Monitoring'.
c. In the right pane, switch to the 'Logging' tab, make sure the 'Task
Pane' is showed there.
d. In the 'Task Pane', click 'Configure firewall Logging' under 'Logging
Tasks', and then switch the 'log storage format' from 'MSDE database'
(default) to 'File'.
e. Switch to the 'Fields' tab, and then click 'Select All'.
f. Click OK, and then click 'Apply' to save changes and update the
configuration.

Prepare to take the trace:
a. Temporarily stop the Firewall service to clear the current existing W3C
logs: Monitoring->Services tab, and then right click 'Microsoft Firewall'
to choose 'Stop'.
b. Go to the log saving directory and clean any existing .W3C logs. By
default, the logs will be saved to 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft ISA
Server\ISALogs'. (Some MDF may not be able to deleted, that's normal.)
c. Go back to the ISA 2004 management console, and then Start the stopped
'Microsoft Firewall' service.

Reproduce the problem:
a. Enable the 'Block IP Fragments' settings. Apply the change. Reboot the
ISA server.
b. Stop the 'Microsoft Firewall' service. Open Windows Explorer, navigate
to the ISA log file folder. Collect the recent w3c files. Save them to a
zip package as 'isalogs.zip'. Start the 'Microsoft Firewall' Service.
c. Send the zip packages to me.

2. MPS Report

1) Please download the MPSRPT_SETUPPerf.EXE from the following link and
then run this tool to gather some information from the problematic computer:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=cebf3c7c-7ca5-408f-
88b7-f9c79b7306c0&displaylang=en
2) Double-click on the MPSRPT_SETUPPerf.EXE file.
[Note] This process may take some time; however, it will not have a
negative effect on the performance.
c. A CAB file will be generated in the
%systemroot%\MPSReports\Setup\Reports\Cab directory called
%COMPUTERNAME%_MPSReports.CAB. The CAB file will contain the reports
generated by the MPS Reporting Tool.

Please send the log files to my mailbox: v-robeli@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with
subject: 38384907- Event ID 537 and Kerberos.

I am looking forward to hear from you.

If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to let me know.


Best regards,

<>
<> From your description, I know that you get Event ID 537 every time you

<> server. If I am off-base, please don¡¯t hesitate to let me know.
<>
<> Based on my research, a logon type of 3 translates to Network. Error
<> 0xC00000DC means "STATUS_INVALID_SERVER_STATE" and you can try a reboot
of
<> the server.
<>
<> Please take the following steps to see if the problem can be resolved:
<>
<> Step 1: Please make a clean boot. The problem occurs when third-party

<>
<> 1. Click Start->Run...->type msconfig and press Enter.
<> 2. Click Services tab and select Hide All Microsoft Services and Disable
<> All third party Services.
<> 3. Click Startup tab and Disable All startup items.
<> 4. Click OK and choose Restart.
<> 5. After reboot, check whether the problem still occurs.
<> 6. If there are no more problems, please use the above steps to enable
<> services and startup items one by one in order to figure out the root
<> cause

<>
<> Step 2: Use an Enterprise anti-virus with updated signatures and scan you

<>
<> Step3: Implement Strong password policies. To do this:
<>
<> Open ''Server Management console'', navigate to Users snap-in. In the

<> policies.
<>
<> For more information, please refer to:

<>
<> 1) Click Start, click Settings, click Control Panel, double-click
<> Administrative Tools, and then double-click Active Directory Users and
<> Computers.
<> 2) In the console tree, right-click the domain on which you want to set a

<> 7) If you are defining this policy setting for the first time, click

<> 8) Click the options that you want, and then click OK.
<>
<> For medium security requirement, the recommended configurations are:
<>
<> Reset account lockout counter after: 30
<> Account lockout duration: 30
<> Account Lockout Threshold: 10
<> For high security requirement, the recommendations are:
