SYMPTOMS

When logging on at the console of a Windows Terminal Server computer or when using the Terminal Server client, Windows Terminal Server sends a netlogon datagram to the PDC querying for the PDC and opens a SAMR pipe and makes several LSA calls. This traffic should not be directly calling the PDC and should use any DC in the domain.
