Cannot validate the logon user account against the domain controller

I am getting the error "Cannot validate the logon user account against the domain controller." when trying to install the Enterprise Console 5.1 on a Windows 2008 R2 server that is in our DMZ.  Even though it is in the DMZ, it is still a domain member and I have logged into it as a domain user that is also a Domain Administrator.  My guess is a port needs to be opened but which one if I can already login as a domain user?

  • HI,

    So as an example.  You're running SEC installer as user: "domain1\administrator"

    nltest /dsgetDC:domain1

    To get your DC name, E.g. \\DC1

    You then ran the AutoIT exe.  In the first prompt you entered DC1, in the second prompt the account you're logged on as, e.g. Administrator

    This returned: 2221.

    net helpmsg 2221 = "The user name could not be found."

    It's odd that that DC doesn't have details of that account?  Is replication working ok?

    Regards,
