any errors on event viewer? quoted from
http://www.ChicagoTech.net
Event ID 5719 - The system cannot log you on now because the domain "name"
is not available."
Symptoms: when attempting to logon a domain, you keep getting an error that
"The system cannot log you on now because the domain "name" is not
available." Also, Event viewer shows Event ID: 5719. No Windows NT or
Windows 2000 Domain Controller is available for domain <domain name>. The
following error occurred: There are currently no logon servers available to
service the logon request.
Resolutions: One possible cause of this error is that you have run out of
buffer space in the NetBT datagram buffer. To resolve this problem, increase
the MaxDgramBuffering value from 128 KB to 256 KB. Run Regedt32.exe, go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\NetBT\Parameters. On
the Edit menu, click Add Value, and then add the following information:
Value Name: MaxDgramBuffering
Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 0x40000
