I need to call assertion 1 into question.
Inability to establish contact with the domain controllers is
most often due to either use of incorrect DNS servers or
unhealthy DNS zone content.
If you are a domain admin, on each DC run the support tool
netdiag and make sure it shows no unexplained errors.
On the XP make sure that only the DNS servers that support
the Active Directory are listed for use an no others.
