The 5504 errors are usually from Exchange Server and if so are (more or less) benign. If you think the errors are from outside
resolutions through your ISPs DNS, disable forwarders in your DNS and just resolve with the root hints - this can correct the bad
packet errors and is a little more secure anyway. If you still can't track them down, you can load up Etherreal or netmon and filter
on port 53 to see what they are. However I wouldn't spend a lot of time wandering down that road unless you can determine that is
the source of the problems you are having.
At any rate, it isn't clear whether these errors, or DNS at all, has anything to do with your issues. It also isn't entirely clear
from your post what the specific problems are.
If you can post a "netdiag /fix" log from a DC and any client-side events that are being logged contemporaneiously with the
problems, it might help determine better what is going on. As a general (not absolute) rule, if a netdiag comes up clean, your
internal DNS is probably configured properly for AD.
