Secure Channel question

[Steve Gould]

My Exchange 2003 server always produces DC connection errors against both of
my DC's (All Domain Controller Servers in use are not responding) when I
reboot the FSMO master (DC1). Running NLTEST I see that the Exchange server
has a trust to DC1 (nltest sc_query). One of the errors reported on the
Exchange server is that it was unable to set up a secure connection to DC2.

Can a machine account have a secure channel to more than one DC? Here is a
fictitious example:

C:\>nltest /server:ExchangeServer /sc_query:mydomain.org
Flags: 10 HAS_IP
Trusted DC Name \\dc1.mydomain.org
Trusted DC Name \\dc2.mydomain.org
Trusted DC Connection Status Status = 0 0x0 NERR_Success
The command completed successfully

Could it be that this type of error message is normal?

Hi Steve-

No, only one SC connection can exist at a time.
