The fact that you noticed lots of errors for services at startup leads me to
believe something went wrong with the upgrade to R2 and there may not be an
easy fix. You might also consider leaving just one network adapter in the
server. In general you want to avoid having a multihomed domain controller.
If you have not done so yet run the latest support tools netdiag and dcdiag
on that domain controller to see what problems, if any, are reported. Verify
that the tcp/ip configuration is correct [which should be static] including
DNS, subnet, and default gateway and compare to functioning domain
controller with the command ipconfig /all. You may also want to cross post
in the server general and networking newsgroups as your problem is not
really security related and you are more likely to get helpful responses in
the appropriate newsgroups.
