Joining a domain...Help

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hello,
I have a Windows 2000 Server running DNS, AD, Exchange.
I have an XP Professional Client.

I can't get the XP Pro client to join the domain.

Through the GUI, I get a "network name cannot be found" error.

Using Netdom join, I get an "RPC server is unavailable" error.
I ran rpingc on the client, with rpings running on the server, and
successfully pinged.
I can ping server by name.
Verified SRV records are created in DNS, and did an nslookup on them
from the client.
Client is pointing to server for DNS.
DNS is pointing to itself for DNS, with forwarders to ISP DNS servers.

Can anyone offer any other troubleshooting advice?
Thanks,
J
