Deleting the (unrelated) errors from my system resolved the DCDIAG errors. I installed the Support Tools, and ran ADDIAG on the DC. This did not turn up anything either.

I'm still trying to find ADDIAG, but I was able to run DCDIAG on the DC. It is returning a few errors which I am now researching:

Starting test: systemlog
An Error Event occurred.  EventID: 0x00000457
<Event String could not be retrieved>
DC failed test systemlog

This error repeats three times.  All other tests pass.

Somewhere in Win2003 (perhaps still on the CD?) are "Support Tools". Try
running "ADDIAG" and "DCDIAG" (command line utilities).

Look in the system logs for both the client and the AD controller and see
if those have any links to solutions.

That's about as much as I remember back from when I was getting these
friendly greetings.

Hey Eric,

Is the W2K box already a member of another domain? Is there anything
filtering traffic between the DC and the old server?  I think
occasionally we also had to use the complete dns name when trying to
add. (ie domain.com not just domain).

Weird though, never seen that before.

Subject: Issue joining 2003 domain

Good morning,

I am trying to join one of our legacy W2K boxes to our W2K3 domain. I
am logged in as the local administrator, and when I try to join I am
passing my domain admin credentials like new_domain\administrator.

I am getting the following error:
Network Identification
The following error occurred attempting to join the domain "new_domain":

No mapping between account names and security IDs was done.

I can ping the new_domain DC by name and IP, and I can see the
new_domain from Network Places.

Any one ever run into this?

Thanks,
