SYMPTOMS

When you use the USRTOGRP utility from the Windows NT Resource Kit, Event ID 2453 appears in the Event Viewer. The description of the system event is:

Could not find a domain controller for this domain.

CAUSE

This problem occurs if you use tabs as delimiters between parameters in your USRTOGRP data file. For example:

domain:<tab><domain_name>

RESOLUTION

To correct this problem, use spaces between parameters in your USRTOGRP data file. For example:

domain:<space><domain_name>
