Symptoms

After you install any of the updates that are listed in the list of affected updates table (later in this section) on Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2012 R2 domain controllers, or on member servers that perform pass-through authentication on behalf of remote callers, NTLM authentication may fail with error 0xC0000022.

This problem does not occur if the security updates that are described in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS16-101 are installed before, after, or together with fixes in the list of affected updates table.


Note To see the log examples for the Netlogon service shown in this section, you must enable debug logging through the registry or the NLTEST tool. For more information about how to enable debug logging for the Netlogon service, see the following Microsoft webpage:
