To add, when I searched on "System Error, Code = (549) STATUS_NOT_FOUND.", I
found an issue with McAfee.

What type of antivirus or firewall are you using on the server or
workstations?

Ace
Yes I read the article from McAfee before I posted here.

No software firewalls on the Servers or Workstations except for the
Webserver. All incoming and outgoing traffic goes through a
Checkpoint hardware firewall. For antivirus we use Computer Associates
AV product.

btw- Why is NetBIOS disabled? There are some niceties that work with it,
such as network neighborhood, network browsing, printer browsing on the
network (not thru AD), mapped drives by single name.

My understanding is that only legacy systems pre W2K need netbios and
possibly SAMBA, not sure about SAMBA though. The only other place that
Netbios is required, that I know about, is when creating trusts between
2 forests. If we ever require it then I will reinstate it for creating
the trust. All necessary drives/devices that each user requires are
mapped using login scripts. BTW, I just disabled netbios about 2 days
ago which was prior to our problem... got tired of seeing all the
unnecessary broadcast traffic. Considering what you said though I
believe that I will reinstate it on the DC and a test workstation and
try another capture with it reinstated to see if the SMB error goes
away. I think DNS is configured okay considering the DCDiag and
Netdiag tests but DFS on the otherhand I am not sure about. Is there a
tool that would test DFS because on a scale of 1 to 10 I know about .01
