Event Id 5701
Source: NETLOGON
Description: The network service failed to update the domain trust list.
When you open User Manager or Server Manager, the following error is displayed:
Could not find domain controller for this domain. Do you want to select
another domain to administer?
CAUSE
=====
This problem can be caused by a defective network card or driver.
RESOLUTION
==========
Reinstall the networking components. If that does not help, install another
network card.
MORE INFORMATION
================
Following some basic connectivity troubleshooting may reveal a problem with the
network card or driver.
If TCP/IP is installed on the computer, run ipconfig/all from a command prompt to
check the IP configuration. If the IP address is 0.0.0.0, that would give
further indication to a problem with the network card.
Try other connectivity related troubleshooting, such as ping and net commands, to
further check for a problem with the network card or driver.
