I noticed that. It's about the only thing that turns up on Google.

net ads join does the same thing. I'm embarrased to say that I'm not 100% sure 
how to answer you question about NT4 vs ADS. I assume it is ADS as there are 
only Win 2K3 and above servers in the domain.

No, it's just a DC.

I removed the hardcoded entries and went with the bare bones example that was 
provided earlier in this thread. Things are working better, but still getting a 
lot of hanging and timeouts. I'm pretty sure it is DNS related, but I have not 
tracked it down yet.
