| 55.Service Name:-Netlogon |
| Executable Name:-lsass.exe |
| Log On As:-LocalSystem |
Description:-Maintains a secure channel between your computer and the domain controller for authenticating users and services. It passes the user's credentials through a secure channel to a domain controller and returns the domain security identifiers and user rights for the user. This is commonly referred to as pass-through authentication. Net Logon is started automatically when the computer is a member of a domain. In Windows 2000 Server family and Windows Server family, the Net Logon service publishes service resource records in the Domain Name System (DNS and uses DNS to resolve names to the Internet Protocol (IP) addresses of domain controllers.
Net Logon also implements the replication protocol based on RPC for synchronizing Microsoft Windows NT version 4.0 backupdomain controllers (BDCs) and the primary domain controller (PDC).
If this service is stopped or disabled, the computer may not be able to authenticate users and services, the domain controller cannot register DNS records and any attempt to join a machine to a domain will fail. Specifically, it might deny NTLM authentication requests and, in case of a domain controller, it will not be discoverable by client computers.
