[dba-Tech] Server 2008

Hi Jim

Could it be (I asked my colleague who guesses) that you have and use an Administrator account in AD, while no Administrator account exists in MS Server 2008 (which it by default does not)?

Hi all:

I am having difficulties setting up a new MS Server 2008 so it will accept
remote administrator connection. This is the first server that I have
experienced this issue with. The other servers, on this site are a mix of
various Linux and Microsoft servers (2003).

The Active-directory and primary server is one of the MS 2003 servers and
the new 2008 server is incorporated into the tree with all the standard set
of rights.

When attempting to login to the 2008 server, it goes so far as to display
the message 'logging in...' and 'loading user profile...'  before displaying
the message 'The Local Session Manager service failed the login...'

Any one have experince with this situation?

Jim
