Very Computer

Environment: Windows 2000 Server, SMS 2.0 SP3, SQL 7

Somehow SMS has deinstalled itself from all of my clients (before I applied
SP3.)  It was working fine before, but now SMS won't reestablish my domain
controllers as logon points.  It discovers them but won't create the SMSLOGON
folder on them.  I assume it fails for all domain controllers b/c these errors
occur with the PDC. The following are excerpts from my nt_logon.log file.  A
similar problem appears on the knowledge base (Q225242, Q215123) but they address
a different error return code (2138) and only suggest applying SP2.

Begin service enum on server [PDC]  $$<SMS_NT_LOGON_SERVER_MANAGER>
NetShareEnum failure Unable to Enumerate NTLM volumes on server [PDC], error=5  
$$<SMS_NT_LOGON_SERVER_MANAGER>
Completed service enum on server [PDC]  $$<SMS_NT_LOGON_SERVER_MANAGER>
.
.
Then it runs NetServerGetInfo and constructs each of my domain controllers
.
.
Then I get the following errors:
.
.
Thread 7FC has terminated exit code=5  $$<SMS_NT_LOGON_SERVER_MANAGER>
Unable to determine best volume  $$<SMS_NT_LOGON_SERVER_MANAGER>

Does this have anything to do with permissions on the PDC?  Please help!!!

Thank you!

Sounds like your service account does not have domain admin rights. There
are other reasons but this is usually the most common.
