SYMPTOMS
When a Windows 2000-based domain controller attempts to translate certain name types, Windows may in rare instances display the following error message and then reboot:

The system process Lsass.exe terminated unexpectedly with status code -1073741819. The system will now shut down and restart.

This issue occurs when Lsass experiences an access violation as described in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
