Service lsassd crashing, after trying to join domain

[OdysseasS]

Hi all,

I am having an issue while trying to join ESXi 5.5 to a domain.

I was getting a plain "Join domain failed." error, so I enabled debug logging following this article: Enabling logging for Likewise agents on ESXi/ESX (1026554) | VMware KB

Trying to join the domain again, lsassd service crashes and I'm seeing these errors in the /var/log/lsassd.log file;

==> /var/log/lsassd.log <==

I read multiple articles on the forum and the internet about AD join errors and troubleshooting, but I couldn't a solution.

Any help is much appreciated.

Many thanks.

Attaching the full logs after an unsuccessful join in case they help.
