Hi,

I'm receiving 2 reoccuring errors (below) in my application event log. They
seem to be something to do with the security policies, however I've checked
through all our GPOs and can't find anything wrong. I looked on eventid.net
and also microsoft.com for some possible solutions, and I found the
following http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;324383 in
the section covering "0x5: Access denied:" there is a procedure to enable
debugging, in step 3 you run a find query on the winlogon.log file to find
any service with misconfigured permissions, however my search did not return
any errors so I was unable to proceed to the next step. Can anyone provide
any assistance? We're running a Win2000 domain, with 2 win2000 SP4 DCs.

Cheers

Ben
