Can't logon - "..The network request is not supported.."

Hi,

I can't logon to one of our server, when I try to logon, it gave me this
error message :

"The system can not log you on due to the following error:
The network request is not supported.
Please try again or consult your system administrator"

Any ideas ?

The network request is not supported.

Symptoms: 1. When you type NET ACCOUNTS /SYNC at the command prompt, you may
receive either of the following error messages: System error 50 has
occurred.
The network request is not supported.
2. After you upgrade your computer to Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 (SP4), you
may experience all the following symptoms: Event ID: 20071 - The network
request is not supported.
3. When you run a software and the data is located in the remote server.

Resolutions: 1.Make sure the Netlogon service is running correctly on the
PDC.
2. If you just upgraded a Windows 2000 SP3 based server to SP4, you may need
to reboot it.
3. Make sure you can access the remote resources.
4. Contact the third-party SMB server manufacturer if you have a third-party
SMB server, such as DEC Pathworks, Samba or Linux.
