Definitely sounds NOS related to me. Try re-applying SPx for your NOS and
see if that changes anything. Sounds like something got horked (official admin
phrase) at initial install. If you're getting API failures, the DLL(s) causing
the problem might continue to degrade until null function occurs. This is not
uncommon, but is rare.
What
type of Hardware is this running on? Is it in the WHCL?

After saving an
exchange server with a disaster recovery all seems to be working well, except Im
getting this error message
Event ID 8250
MSExchangeAL
The Win32 API call
'DsGetDCNameW' returned error code [0x862] The specified component could not be
found in the configuration information. The service could not be
initialized. Make sure that the operating system was installed properly.
I have found nothing
on mskb, or eventid.net so I submitted it. All seems to be running well, this
only occurs at bootup along with a MAD.EXE all servers in use error, but then
everything initializes and runs fine.
