SYMPTOMSWhen you add a Linux-based client computer to a domain controller that is running Microsoft Windows Server 2003 or Microsoft Windows 2000, heap corruption occurs on the domain controller. This heap corruption deletes data from valid memory addresses and generates an access violation. This behavior occurs when the client computer tries to access valid data on the domain controller.
Note This access violation causes the domain controller to crash.CAUSEThis behavior occurs when the following conditions are true: - The client computer tries to access the domain controller by using Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) bind calls.
- The LDAP bind calls use encryption buffers that are smaller than the encryption block size.
