Cause
This is a Windows .net Error code received from Orion during a Polling request to a Remote Windows NODE via WMI.
This is a Kerberos authentication error. The account used for monitoring could not authenticate it correctly in a secured environment. The system time on the monitored server is incorrect. Possible 'Clock Drift'.
Resolution
The most popular resolution is to fix the system date and time (& time zone) on the monitored server - it should use the same time as the domain controller.
(*Troubleshooting by changing the Windows User account to a local account shared between servers but in a Windows Domain this may blocked by security services.)
Additionally, reach out to your Windows Administrator to assist in identifying this error in your environment.
