That's just because DNS hadn't loaded properly and Netlogon tried to
reregister it's SRV records in DNS.

You can safely ignore this. Netlogon will attempt to, and succeed,
reregister later.

You can play around with the order that services start in the registry to
stop this from happening - I've done this in the past, but there's really no
need. However, if like I used to be, you hate seeing errors in the logs,
then make netlogon depend on w32time. You do this by navigating to:

HKLM\ SYSTEM\ CurrentControlSet\ Services\ Netlogon

And editing the REG_MULTI_SZ value. You should add, w32time and press
return (there has to be a line underneath the last string).

Note. In Win2000, you'll need to use reged32 as regedit can't do
REG_MULTI_SZ.

In my event viewer i noticed that netlogon services has problem. It
started first and then followed by dns, which is incorrect sequence.
The event id in event viewer is 5781. The error is as below. Currently
i'm using Win2000 AD domain and dynamic update.  I've refered to
article Q193888 which describe this problem , but don't quite
understand how to solve this. I also have dcdiag and netdiag result.
Below are the results. Anyone pls advise. Thanks
"Dynamic registration or deregistration of one or more DNS records
failed because no DNS servers are available. "
