The following error is regularly appearing on one of our W2K3 SP1 DC's: Event Type: Error Event Source: NTDS ISAM Event Category: General Event ID: 604 Date: 05/03/2007 Time: 12:37:04 User: N/A Computer: LDN-DC4 Description: NTDS (888) NTDSA: Locale ID 0x00000404 (Chinese (Taiwan) Chinese) is either invalid or not installed on this machine. For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp. The above language is not installed on the DC, as it’s not required. Any ideas what could be causing this? I’ve heard of this happening on Exchange servers, where an OWA client has the language installed but the Exchange server doesn’t. By this logic, I thought it may be caused by an “out of site” PC being authenticated by this DC, but it doesn’t seem to be the case. By the same token, I suppose it could be that an in-site PC has the language pack installed, and that the error is being logged when the client is authenticated? Don't see why this error would be logged just because of authentication though. I also thought it may be somehow caused by a replication partner in the Asia Pacific region (the DC logging the error is part of an IP site link that includes a connection to an AD site in Asia), however the timestamps for the error aren’t consistent with the replication interval. The DC logging the error is a GC, and is hosting a read-only partition of the domain partition from AP - is there any possibility there is some info the DC is trying to report in the event log regarding a string that it can't interpret (say for an object in the AP partition)? I suppose I can get rid of the errors by installing the support for East Asian languages, but I’d rather know why the error is being logged. I’d also rather avoid the 230mb of associated installation files! Thanks, MD _________________________________________________________________ Find what you need at prices you’ll love.
