Hi

I'm drawing a pretty long bow here but you might be seeing something like
this:

834649 Client computers record Event ID 1030 and Event ID 1058 when DFS is

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=834649

Take a look at the event logs for problematic clients as well as the DC's.
The knowledge base has a few articles with similar symptoms and action
depends on the event description.

Kind regards
