| Description | Failure accepting connections for password change requests. %rError = %1 |
| Event Information | According to Microsoft : Cause : This event is logged when failure accepting connections for password change requests. Resolution : Correct Windows Sockets error This is typically the result of a Windows Sockets failure when making the WSAAccept call, and can usually be resolved by restarting the computer on which Password Synchronization is running can correct the problem. A failure occurred while attempting to create a socket to communicate between the UNIX-based host computer and the Windows computer. This is generally a failure returned from a Windows Sockets API. The text of the error message should provide the exact nature of the Windows Sockets failure. To restart the computer:
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. |
