I recently had to reinstall SBS 2003 because of a hardware failure and
repeatedly get the following error in the event viewer on one of my WinXP Pro
workstations:

I have tried the various fixes suggested my Microsoft to no avail.

Any ideas?

Thanks, but these seem to reference things I have already tried ... All the
DNS and AD tools seem to indicate all is ok ... any other thoughts?

What happens when you remove the client from the domain. Reboot then add
it back to the domain?
What device is the client pointing to for DNS?

Thanks to Robert and Ed for your responses ... I eliminated this problem by
changing the name of the client and adding it to the network.
