The error indicates that: The name or security ID (SID) of the domain specified is inconsistent with the trust information for that domain. When this error is encountered, the Windows operating system was unable to complete the requested operation within the network services subsystem. The error code 1810 is returned by the GetLastError() function and provides developers with a specific identifier to diagnose the root cause of the failure.
