It's not critical, but I've always had these errors in the error log, what i causing them (b'cos microsoft and their website are crap at answering <i> simple </i> questions.

'Windows cannot determine the user or computer name. Return value (1722)'

The source of this error was 'userenv' and the user was 'NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM', the event ID is 1000.

Please let us know if you have seen this error or know what it means, even a well placed hint would get me on the right path.

if pint$ = 20 goto HOME

OK, I read the thread (titled 'DNS again' - recent) and it answered the question above perfectly. Now I know this problem is related to DNS, I can tell you I also get lots of error logs in the server relating to DNS.

Basically, the error log used to tell me that the DNS server kept encountering packets addresses to itself (from itself); something which shouldn't happen. Since a reinstall (neccesitated by that little bastard, nimda) the error logs show something different....

'The DNS server has encountered numerous run-time events. These are usually caused by the reception of bad or unexpected packets, or from problems with or excessive replication traffic. The data is the number of suppressed events encountered in the last 15 minute interval. '

and the data is: 0000: 16 00 00 00 ....

the event ID is 9999 and the source is DNS.

Please, if anyone knows a good site on DNS configuration, or can point me in the right direction....

Cheers
