One possible reason is that if your PDC is also your proxy server, you
should check what packet filtering you are performing on the proxy server.
If it is not allowing packets to the correct ports for RPC and Netlogon type
services (I don't know which ports those are off hand, but I'm sure
support.microsoft.com can help you out with that one), then you won't be
able to communicate with the PDC to authenticate.
