Here is part of the statement given me by Mark Stanfill, of the SBS
design/support team. It deals with why SharePoint Portal Server should
not be run on a SBS server, but you have some similarities, in that you
have SPS installed on a box that is an AD controller.

Hollis,

Besides the obvious "all your eggs in one basket" situation (which may be
an acceptable scenario or the only possible scenario for some
deployments),
there are a couple of technical points that are mainly covered by KB
article 825505 List of software installation requirements for SharePoint
Portal Server.

>From the article:
____________
If you are installing SharePoint Portal Server on a domain controller, you
must install it without the database engine. When you install it on a
domain controller, the option to install with the database engine is not
available.

Before you install SharePoint Portal Server, Microsoft recommends that you
make sure that the following programs or technologies are not installed:
- Microsoft Exchange Server (any version)
- Microsoft Site Server (any version)
- Microsoft Office Server Extensions
___________

So, the small AD controller, with database, may well be your problem.
