The Issue

Some of the computers on the lan display this error.

The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed.

Potential Solutions

Reboot

Sometimes rebooting clears the error as a workaround

Setting time sync

   w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:bob.ad.pumpingstationone.org,0x8 /syncfromflags:MANUAL 
   w32tm /config /update 
   net stop w32time 
   net start w32time
   w32tm /resync

Also check the timezone is correct.

Fixes a Potential problem where kerberos and the AD server get out of sync. Has failed to permanently resolve the problem on sliceyToo, but did make it go away for a day while rebooting failed.

Reset machine password

   netdom RESETPWD /Server:bob /UserD:PS1\hef /PasswordD:*

Attempted on sliceyToo, has not yet been attempted elsewhere.
