Resolution

fact
Domain Migration Administrator 7.x

symptom
A migrated computer cannot resolve SIDs in its local groups.

symptom
Event Log Error: ' Windows cannot determine the user or computer name. Return value (14).'

symptom

The application log on the migrated computer contains:

Event Type:     Error
Event Source:   Userenv
Event Category: None
Event ID:       1000
User:           NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer: 
Description:  Windows cannot determine the user or computer name. Return value (14).



cause

This issue is caused because the local domain controller at the site of the computer is not replicating properly, and thus does not have any of the new migrated account information that has been written to another domain controller.



fix
To resolve this error, force Active Directory replication to enable a domain controller, local to the migrated workstation, to recognize the computer account.
