I had this type of thing with an nt4 domain. turned out it was wins replication. removing the offending domain (and it's wins server) from WINS replication, and restarting the wins service on all wins servers resolved it.
I did have to do it several times and stop all the servers that were rep partners with the offending domain all at once to get it to work.

(posting for a friend who is not part of the list. Please email me directly (as well as posting to the list) if you have suggestions. Thanks - Mike). I wiped out a machine that was a domain contoller (not a master DC) then rebuilt it from scratch. Obviously it has its own domain which, now, no longer extists. I have made it part of, i.e. member of, another domain. The problem is the the previous domain still shows up in AD and I cannot delete it. I've tried AD Domains and Trusts, AD Sites and services, checked MS web site, KB, etc..to no avail!!! The error message that I'm getting is: "NETLOGON: No windows NT or Windows 2000 domain contoller is available for TERMSRV"; TERMSRV is the previous domain that no longer exists, and it's the one I'm trying to get erradicate! I also have DNS setup on the master DC. Want to unsub? Do that here: http://www.w2knews.com/rd/rd.cfm?id=unsub Need a good FAQ? Try this one first: http://www.ultratech-llc.com/KB/ Want to unsub?
