STOP 0x21a on Terminal Server Because of Invalid RPC Response (222162)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition
This article was previously published under Q222162 SYMPTOMS
You are using a Terminal Server computer in the role of a member server in a domain served by a non-Windows NT domain controller running SAMBA.
When logging on to the Terminal Server, the system stops with the following blue screen error message:
STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error}
The Windows Logon Process system process terminated unexpectedly with
a status of 0x00000000 (0x00000000,0x0000000)
The system has been shut down
RESOLUTION
To work around this issue, do not use SAMBA 2.0.x as a domain controller. According to the product's developers, it is not qualified for use as a domain controller.
STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Windows NT Server 4.0, Terminal Server Edition. MORE INFORMATION
SAMBA is a third-party implementation of the SMB networking protocol used by Windows NT.
The Terminal Server computer does a remote registry query against the domain controller. An invalid response to this query causes the Terminal Server to crash.
NOTE: This problem does not occur when using a Windows NT domain controller.
