Hi all,
not sure if this is the right place for this threadf, but I couldnt find a server 2003 area anywhere.
I have a server 2003 system displaying the following error:-
"lsass.exe-System Error: Security Accounts Manager initialization failed because of the following error: Directory Service cannot start. Error Status: 0xc00002e1. Please click OK to shutdown this system and reboot into Directory Services Restore Mode, check the event log for more detailed information."
Microsofts answer is :- (ie: call and well charge you)
To resolve this problem immediately, contact Microsoft Product Support Services to obtain the hotfix. For a complete list of Microsoft Product Support Services phone numbers and information about support costs, visit the following Microsoft Web site:
support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=fh;[LN];CNTACTMS
I can log in under Directory Services Restore Mode (like safe mode) and run sasser checks etc, but no virus indicated.
I can format if need be, but as this is configured with Active Dircetory and a stack of roaming profiles, I'd rather not.
Hope someone can suggest further things for me to try,
Thanks,
Fospherous
