Did you reboot after changing the computer name? If so, try changing the CF service to run under another account, create a temp local user or something. Reboot, and change the service back to local system, reboot and see what happens.
Assuming "cloned" means the original server was a VM that was cloned, was the server sysprep'd after being cloned, or was it cloned from a template (image) that was in a sysprep state? If not and the servers are on a domain, I can see this still occurring even after trying the above. If you are on a domain and not sysprep'ing the clones, this will eventually be the least of your problems, as all sorts of weirdness will start to occur with those servers.
