Ok, This is a long shot (especially considering I haven't read the log dump below) but I was getting this problem before. The issue that I was related to DNS lookups. Say the executor is on a machine named "Bob" but the entry in the DNS table for "Bob" was not the same IP address assigned to the actual machine... this can cause issues with connections.
In my case it was that there where some mismatches between the names being assigned to computers from the DHCP server and those that where recorded in the DNS server... some machines had been forgotten about over time and the admin team didn't have the auto-update between the DNS server and the DHCP server setup correctly. Anyway, the solution I used (while the admin team where sorting out the dns server) was to manually put an entry in the hosts file on the server where the manager was (hosts file is in: "c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\") to prevent the machine from going to the DNS server when the manager tried to do a lookup on the name of the executor that had connected. Weird situation, and chances are it is not what is happening to you, but I said I'd reply... just in case.
