Hello Ophelaisys, Thank you for posting in the SBS newsgroup. According to your description, I understand that you received these Event logs "Event Source: LSASRV, Event ID: 40961. Event Source: LSASRV, Event ID: 40960. Event Source: Security, Event ID: 529" in the SBS Server. If I have misunderstood the problem, please don't hesitate to let me know. To troubleshoot this issue, please kindly refer to the following information: I. As for Event logs "Event Source: LSASRV, Event ID: 40961. Event Source: LSASRV, Event ID: 40960" Based on my experience, this issue can occur when you restart the SBS 2003 server that was promoted to a domain controller. A service, for example, the Windows Time service (W32Time), tries to authenticate before Directory Services has started. You can just safely ignore the event as it will not cause any adverse effects to the server. For more information, see: 823712 Event IDs 40960 and 40961 in the System Event Log When You Restart http://support.microsoft.com/?id=823712 824217 LSASRV Event IDs 40960 and 40961 When You Promote a Server to a Domain http://support.microsoft.com/?id=824217 I would suggest you reboot the server again and see if the event does not appear. The issue could also be a similar to the problem described in the following KB article: 826819 The Server Stops Responding and an Access Violation Occurs in Lsass.exe http://support.microsoft.com/?id=826819 II. As for Event log "Event Source: Security, Event ID: 529" Based on my experience, this issue can occur if you enabled the "Audit logon event" policy enabled on the SBS server and a failure logon attempt is performed from the remote client. Security Event ID 529 is a failure audit for logon/logoff. It may be related to Exchange/IIS, client computer or inconsistent computer account password of the SBS 2003. I appreciate your time and cooperation. If anything is unclear, please feel free to let me know. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
