    Default Server hangs at "Applying computer settings" b4 logon screen

    Hi, we have just upgraded our network from a single NT4
    Domain to a Win2k3 Domain. It is in Native mode and all
    the servers work, which include a one WinNT 4 server,
    many Win2k servers, two 2003 DC's, and three 2003
    servers. The problem we have is since the upgrade, 2 of
    the windows 2003 servers hang at "Applying computer
    settings" just logon screen when we boot up. Also the
    strange thing is they work in safe mode with networking
    on. When the servers are stuck at this point we can ping
    them for a few minutes and the they drop out.

    Any ideas????

    Check you DNS Servers. This is ofter cause by the worng
    address assigned for the DNS server or a rogue Alias
    entry.
