There are a number of good sites out there with snippets of information. Amongst these microsoft technet site and places like www.jsiinc.com

MS suggest:

Netlogon Event 3051, with Invalid Registry Entry in Event Viewer

http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q245/0/86.ASP

While Jsiinc suggest exactly the same thing

http://www.jsiinc.com/SUBD/tip1700/rh1794.htm

I have a link to these sites handy on my toolbar you never know when your going to need them.

I used the procedure that gived jb.

However, as the path specified in the documents does not exist on my server,

I used the path for the shared "scripts" folder that was set on my server and worked.

Thanks
