I can login fine with domain admin account, question is I used to be able to login to the machine account and can not anymore, does that make sense? Anytime I make a machine a DC now I can not login to it.

I used to be able to login locally to my domain controller but now I can not, any ideas? It must have something to do with domain controller securtiy settings, but they all look good as far as I can tell.
