I see, I found some references about superiorDNSRoot at the MS's site, could You please recommend what to look for in AD to see where the trouble is? As far as I understood superiorDNSRoot is something dynamically generated, but in my case sometimes this generation fail, am I right?

Yes Russian is fine for event text. So this error is a little silly on our part. In 2003, we actually disabled this error by default, and only throw it if you increase the appropriate logging level to at least one (whereas in 2000 0 would toss it, aka default install). We also added some better text and parameters in 2003: ---------- An attempt to generate a referral based on the superiour reference failed for the following DN. Active Directory could not find the superiorDNSRoot attribute on the cross-reference object for the root domain of this forest because it is not set. An attempt to generate a referral automatically has also failed. Additional info: Object DN: ---------- Of course, the parameters would be filled in on an actual throwing of the error. Try looking at what the error text from 2003 is telling you. The code path which throws this in 2003 is logically similar to 2000. ~Eric -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pete Procenko Sent: Friday, December 31, 2004 12:36 AM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] help troubleshoot ntds general 1049 error Thanks for reply!

Do anyone know what error "All Directories require main root reference, but it is not found" means and what to do in this case? We use localized w2k server with sp4, so in english version message could sound differently. Last month this message with source NTDS General and Event id 1049 began to appear about one or two times per week, it seems that all is working fine, but who knows? We have two domains in one forest, four DC, all DC's are GC, this error is logged only on first DC in first domain. Tried to find anythihg about this at microsoft's site, and at Google, and in maillist archives, but unsuccessifully. Pete.
