SYMPTOMS
You are using a Terminal Server computer in the role of a member server in a domain served by a non-Windows NT domain controller running SAMBA. When logging on to the Terminal Server, the system stops with the following blue screen error message:

STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error}

The Windows Logon Process system process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0x00000000 (0x00000000,0x0000000)

The system has been shut down



RESOLUTION
To work around this issue, do not use SAMBA 2.0.x as a domain controller. According to the product's developers, it is not qualified for use as a domain controller.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Windows NT Server 4.0, Terminal Server Edition.



MORE INFORMATION
SAMBA is a third-party implementation of the SMB networking protocol used by Windows NT.

The Terminal Server computer does a remote registry query against the domain controller. An invalid response to this query causes the Terminal Server to crash.

NOTE: This problem does not occur when using a Windows NT domain controller.
