    I get above  message whenever I try to login to my virtual windows 7 box.   It is a member of the domain, what is causing this erroneous message?   Any fix?  we disabled the local admin account.   What could we do to see it not happen again if we reload?     again, this is a vhd windows 7 running within windows 7

    thanks

    This is unlikely to be an issue the machine being a virtual machine. There are two possibilities to start with.

    1. How did you create the VM? Did you move a physical machine to the virtual? In that case, if the original physical machine also a member of the domain, it will get confused.
    2. Do you use snapshots and go back? That will not work with Domains either, since it may update machine credentials time to time.

    Hi,

     

    ·         Mostly, the issue can be resolved by rejoining the computer to the domain.

     

    Leave the Domain

    ================

     

    1. Log on locally as a local administrator.

     

    2. Open System by clicking the Start button, right-clicking Computer, and then clicking Properties.

    3. Under Computer name, domain, and workgroup settings, click Change settings.

    4. Select Change and enter a Workgroup name, leaving the domain

     

    5. Restart the computer and log on locally as a local administrator.

     

    There are two methods to rejoin the domain:

     

    1.You can join the domain from the client if at the same time you can provide an administrator username and password on the domain.

    2.You can delete the existing computer account in Server Manager, recreate the computer account, synchronize the domain, and then on the client rejoin the domain.

     

    Connect your computer to a domain

     

    You may also refer to the following Knowledge Base(KB) article:

     

    Error 1789 when you use the LookupAccountName function on a computer that is running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2

     

    Hope it helps.

     

    Regards,

    This was a fresh vm created for development purposes.  What we did was remove from domain and rejoined as the other post suggested.

    A band-aid fix, but the underlying root cause is still a mystery.

       You caqn call it a band-aid fix if you like. I call it standard procedure for this problem.

    Resurrecting an old thread, but this should answer it:

    (Short answer - VM snapshots get the client out of sync w/ AD)
