So it sounds like you've narrowed down the offending workstation, now you
need to narrow down the process on that workstation that is creating your
issue. When did the problem with that workstation first appear? Do you
have multiple NT4.0 workstations exhibiting this behavior or only one? Is
it running SP6a with all the appropriate patches? When you say "access the
domain controller" are you talking about logging onto the domain controller
or connecting to a share or other resource on that DC?
If you've got one offending workstation either rebuild it or
uninstall/disable applications and services until you find the cause of the
problem.

| It has to do with the authentication from Windows NT workstation. Whenever
| Windows NT workstation tries to access the domain controller, LSASS.exe
| takes 100% of CPU & stays at 100% until the server is rebooted... Strange
| thing is that, Windows 98 computer does not have problem accessing the
| server where as NT workstation computer shows the logon error messages...
