WIth errors like this, we'll need more info about your configuration, such
as an ipconfig /all from the DC you;re doing this on, is this the only DC in
the domain and/or forest, service pack level, Event ID # errors (from the
Event viewer), and your AD domain name for starters. This is a tough one to
guess on without additional info.
