I've seen this error/ issue on XP boxes after using a machine via remote
desktop, and then trying to log on locally. Rebooting fixed this.

I've also noticed this: a service that runs using a user account as a
security context, e.g. smsservice is a member of domainName\administrators
but the service cannot start due to the account not having log on locally
rights. The reason - networking/ routing problems stopping/ blocking
authentication with a DC.

Something to think about...

Paul.
