Hi, does anyone know what this error means, or specifically how to stop it!

I'm getting it in the security log on numerous servers in one domain from a
machine in another domain - no trust exists

Event Type:     Failure Audit

Description:
The logon to account: in domain b
by: MICROSOFT_AUTHENTICATION_PACKAGE_V1_0
from workstation: in domain b
failed. The error code was: 3221225572

It looks like this machine is trying to log on to servers in one domain
using a domain account in it's own domain

Any ideas, there's not much I could find on the internet and it's driving me
nuts

Thanks, Ali
