Cant find anything on this? Anyone seen this before?
 
Looks like that error maps to "Server not found in Kerberos database".
Make sure you are running the latest service pack as there are a couple of
fixes for this error in service packs. Also since this seems to be a SQL
server make sure Kerberos is configured properly for it.

Hi, thanks for the reply. I am running sql7.

I have no client realm or name.
Nor is there any data.
Server name is krbtgt/domain/ca? does that mean it is looking for the
krbtgt server or service?
same with target name?

This error message doesnt seem to leave me enough information to
troubleshoot the problem.

I see no olap service running.

Thanks again.

I also have the user krbtgt disabled.. i am certain no one disabled him on
their own?
would this have anything to do with it?

Bit more on this, I have a friend of a friend who has had the same problem
since patching his machines. His setup is:
standalone iis/asp server
ad domain

mine is
member iis/asp/database server
ad domain
nt4 domains that trust the ad domain

He said that the only way he could get it to work was creating the
IUSR_LOCALSERVERNAME
user in his domain as domain\IUSR_LOCALSERVERNAME
then the error messages went away.
Like me the server/asp pages worked as always, just getting a ton of
messages.

anyone else seen this?
thanks
