Unable to complete the operation on "File Replication Service" The security descriptor structure is

[Andy]

Hi, anytime i try and click on "file replication service" in the event
viewer, i get the message:

Unable to complete the operation on "File Replication Service" The security
descriptor structure is invalid.

this problem is making my application log completely useless because the
application log is filled up with warnings that state:

it fills up the application log every second.

error opening event log file File Replication Service log will not be
processed return code from OpenEventLog is 1338

can anyone help me?

thank you,
Andrew
