Hello,
I have an Exchange 2003 server in our network and I keep getting Topology and LDAP errors. It seems to disconnect authentication from our PDC and BDC. For no apparent reason, the Exchange server will become unavailable causing users to get the login box from Outlook which keeps popping up. During this time I ran netdiag which fails to find domain controllers or group controllers but dcdiag works fine. I can also ping and browse both DCs. I see that its not a network connectivity issue since I can ping and browse and when I browse a DCs files I am not prompted for a password. When the Exchange server get unavailable, it lasts for about 15 minutes then reconnects to one of the DCs and everything is fine for a while. Netlogon also fails either before or after the initial Topology errors. I tried adding the MaxDgrambuffer registry trick but it didnt work. ONCE Exchange comes back online with the PDC and BDC netdiag works fine, all passed. Here are some of the logs as I get about 50-60 Topology and LDAP errors in a row when Exchange does this.
