How long did you wait? If there is a configuration problem it can take a very long time, I've seen 30 minutes.
Once on of course you want to dig around in the event logs to find out why before rebooting!
Also check this article:

It is also possible there is a problem with the Administrator's profile that is hanging the logon. If you can get
to the C$ share from another machine, rename that profile folder out of the way
(in \\server\c$\documents and settings) so that a new one is created at the next logon attempt.
You can also use computer management on another workstation, and connect it to the server. If that works
you can see the event logs on the server which will often give you a clue to the problem.
