I am currently running Vista ultimate 32-bit and windows server 2003 standard edition on separate machines and i am trying to connect to my active directory in vista but every time i try to connect after making a few tweaks or restarting my network i get the same message as follows.
The Following Error Occurred attempting to connect to domain "xxx":

Sounds to me like when you restart, you DNS settings get changed to point to another IP other than the Domain controller(DNS Server) make sure to put a static address in the vista machine that points DNS to the server,
