sIDHistory Error Code 1376

Bulletin: 070609

Software Effected:
WADMigrator

Issue:
When migrating sIDHistory from one domain to another, a Windows error code 1376 is generated and sIDHistory fails to complete.

Solution:
If during the sIDHistory migration process, a Windows error code of 1376 is generated, the prerequisites for sIDHistory migration have not been followed.

Error 1376 occurs when a domain local group is missing. In order to perform a successful SidHistory migration, an empty domain local group must exist in the source domain with the NetBIOS name of the domain followed by 3 "$" signs: DomainName$$$.

We would like to thank Scott Chandler and Eric Lissoy, from Far West Technology in California for bringing this issue to our attention.
