Hi everybody,

I have a 2008 environment.

Now, our WTS crashed and I restored a backup made in May (which is no problem since we have pretty stable program releases).

But when I try to log on, I get the message : An authentication error occurred: 0x80090304

What can that be? If I do not get over this problem, all my backups are for nothing.

Any idea?

Thanks a lot

Just a couple thoughts,

Is this server in a A/D domain or just a local TS server?

If it is an A/D domain, it may be that it is unable to
communicate with the domain controller.

Are you trying to logon to the console or an RDP session?
If RDP session, try to logon directly to the console and
see if you can get into the Event Viewer.
