- The audit log is 80% full.

- An error occurred closing file %1. Please check the file to make sure it is

  restoring the backup database made on %1 at %2. Any updates made to the
  database after this time are lost.

- Local security could not be started because the user accounts database
  (NET.ACC) was missing or corrupted, and no usable backup database was
  present. THE SYSTEM IS NOT SECURE.

- The server cannot export directory %1, to client %2. It is exported from
  another server.

- The replication server could not update directory %2 from the source on %3
  due to error %1.

  is not retrieving the updates.

- The update log on %1 is full, and no further updates can be added until the
  primary domain controller %2 retrieves the updates.

- The time difference with the primary domain controller %1 exceeds the maximum

  domain. One of the servers should be removed from the domain because the

  %3 domain. One of the servers should be demoted or removed from the domain.
