Hi,



I've just promoted a Windows 2003 server to DC in our forest root

domain, after sucessfully completing forestprep and domainprep a few

weeks ago. This is the first 2003 DC in our forest.



After a sucessful promotion to domain controller and initial

replication, I promoted the machine to global catalog. The promotion

to GC seemed sucessful, but a few minutes later NTDS generated the

following eventlog error - ID 1173 (full text below), causing the

machine to reboot.



This seems very simalar to the problem described in 824226, (later

superseded by 828297 due to a memory leak), which relates to Windows

2000 domain controllers. I did encounter this problem with Windows

2000 AD controllers in my domain, but only very infrequently. Is this

the same problem appearing in Server 2003? If so, is there a patch or

workaround from MS? I'd like to know what caused this before proceding

further with my upgrade of the domain to AD 2003.



Thanks in advance,



Mark
