I'm working with a remote counterpart who is setting up a new installation of EEPC. He was able to get everything setup and encrypted three machines. However, one of the machines won't synch properly. In the SbClientLog.txt it shows the error above right after it tries to authenticate to the database.
In the EEM, when I looked up this machines Object ID, the name shows as "00000002.00000004", and I can open up its properties and everything looks fine. But when I try to do a Forcesynch, I get the same error.
I have tried deleting the index, and rebuilding it with the -getcounts command in the SBADMCL Utility, and it throws error "db000004: The name was not found in the database."
In digging around, I noticed that in the SBDATA folder, that the file for 0000004 has a "0c400047.DAT" file, which none of the other machine objects seem to have.
I have also tried to set the machine object to "remove" in the EEM, hoping that a synch would go far enough to start decrypting the drive, and we could just remove the software and start over, but no luck.
Has anyone seen/fixed this issue before? Can anyone tell me if that extra DAT file means anything? Is there anyway to determine what attribute everything is looking for and if there is a way to "trick" it into working?
Which version of EEPC?
That file is one byte size and legitimate attribute.
Please post full SbClientLog.txt. Is hard drive encrypted? Pre-boot present?
If not, reinstall client (SBsetup.exe -uninstall).
For corrupted database, export that machine object first, then perform offline database maintenance with orphan check and "cleanupmachinegroup" SBADMCL command.
Running EEPC 5.2.3, hard drive is encrypted, Pre-Boot is present, using AutoBoot user to authenticate.
--Stopped EEPC Database Server

--Ran RenameMachinetoNetworkName command on group that contains machine object

Maybe you have damaged object attribute set. Restore object from backup, or reinstall client.
sounds like the name attribute is corrupt - have you been using the same account for multiple simultaneous logins maybe?
You'll need to restore the 08400001.dat attribute from a backup, or make a new one up by modifying an existing file with a new (unicode) name.
