Cannot generate SSPI Context

I have SQL Server 2000 SP3 server running on W2003 SP1 Std that is setup to
run under a domain account with local admin privileges. The server and user
account are in the same domain.
When I then try to register the SQL Server instance via SQLEM, running with
my privileges and I also have local admin to the SQL Server server and have
the same setup for other servers already in place, I get an error saying
"Cannot generate SSPI context"
Does anyone have any ideas on how I can correct this?
Cheers,
JohnTake a look into the article.

creation. However, I have never needed to do this in the past so I am not
convinced this is the problem. I am also reluctant to start making that sor

of change when it has not been necessary in the past and start deviating fro

our standard install process.
Do you have any other suggestions?
