CAUSE

This problem occurs if the "Impersonate a client after authentication" policy is defined for a Group Policy object (GPO) that is linked to the domain.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, use one of the following methods.

Method 1

Disable the Impersonate a client after authentication policy for every GPO that is linked to the domain. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. On any domain controller for the domain that you are trying to join, locate all the GPOs that define the "Impersonate a client after authentication" policy. You can use the Directory Services version of the Microsoft Product Support Reporting Tool to locate these GPOs. To do this, follow these steps:
    1. Download the Microsoft Product Support Reporting Tool from the Microsoft Download Center. The following file is available for download from the Microsoft Download Center:

    2. Open the MPSRPT_DirSvc.exe file.
    3. Read the Microsoft Software License Terms, and then click Yes.
    4. In the %Systemroot%\MPSReports\DirSvc\Logs folder, open the ComputerName_GPRESULT.txt file.
    5. In this file, find all occurrences of "ImpersonatePrivilege" (without the quotation marks). For each occurrence of "ImpersonatePrivilege," note the name of the GPO that is associated with this policy.
  2. Click Start, click Run, type dsa.msc, and then click OK.
  3. In the Active Directory Users and Computers Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in, right-click domain_name.com, and then click Properties.
  4. For each GPO that defines the "Impersonate a client after authentication" policy at the domain level, follow these steps:
    1. On the Group Policy tab, click the GPO link, and then click Edit.
    2. In the GPO Editor MMC snap-in, expand Computer Configuration, expand Windows Settings, expand Security Settings, expand Local Polices, and then click User Rights Assignment.
    3. Right-click Impersonate a client after authentication, and then click Properties.
    4. Click to clear the Define these policy settings check box, and then click OK.
    5. On the File menu of the GPO Editor MMC snap-in, click Exit.
  5. Restart the domain controller.

Method 2

Grant the Full Control permission to the Svchost.exe file for the Network Service account. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. On the computer that cannot join the domain, click Start, click Run, type system32, and then click OK.
  2. Right-click Svchost.exe, and then click Properties.
  3. Click the Security tab, and then click Add.
  4. In the Enter the object names to select area, type Network Service, click Check Names, and then click OK.
  5. In the Group or user names area, click NETWORK SERVICE.
  6. In the Permissions area, in the Allow column, click to select the Full Control check box.
  7. Click OK, and then click Yes.
