Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:
  • You disable the remote procedure call (RPC) filter on an existing Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server 2004-based array.
  • You perform an array mode installation of ISA Server 2004 and try to join the computer to the existing ISA Server-based array.
In this scenario, you cannot join a new array member to an existing ISA Server 2004-based array. Additionally, you may receive an error message that resembles the following:
An attempt to use Windows authentication to authenticate the request sent to the Configuration Storage server computer failed. Refer to Getting Started Guide for help on setting up Windows authentication.
The ISA Server installation log may contain the following error message:
Time ISA setup CA INFO : GetAccountInfo failed with 0x800706fd trying to create a connection to the configuration server
Time ISA setup CA WARNING: AccountToSid(ADAM) failed. hr=0x800706fd
Note The "0x800706fd" error code translates to the following error message text:
ERROR_TRUSTED_RELATIONSHIP_FAILURE The trust relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed.

Cause

This behavior occurs if the RPC filter is disabled on the existing ISA Server-based array.

The LookupAccountName function uses RPC. If you disable the RPC filter, ISA Server cannot create dynamic rules to enable traffic through the random RPC ports. Therefore, RPC traffic may be blocked.
