Descriptionsocket(): All ports are in use.
Event Information According to Microsoft :

Cause :

This event is logged when all ports are in use.

Resolution :

Restart the Windows-based computer

Very rarely, Password Synchronization reports that an internal application error occurred with the SetNotify function call, and that the Windows to UNIX Password Synchronization Service cannot operate normally. Restarting the Windows-based computer on which Password Synchronization is installed typically clears the error.

To restart the computer:
  • Click Start, click the arrow next to the Lock button, and then click Restart.
Verify :

To verify the functional state of UNIX to Windows password synchronization, retry UNIX to Windows password synchronization. UNIX to Windows password synchronization is fully operational when the password synchronization succeeds, and functioning with warning conditions present if password synchronization fails for some passwords but succeeds for others.

If password synchronization succeeds for some passwords but fails for others, the UNIX to Windows Password Synchronization Service is likely fully operational, but there might be account- or computer-specific configuration problems preventing password changes from being synchronized on UNIX-based hosts.
