This error suddenly appeared on one of my DCs (64-bit, Windows 2003
Enterprise R2 SP2) a few days ago. No other DCs show this error. The DC
still servers up requests fro clients, just cannot access the server via
MMC, either on the box or remotely.
The TechNet site is not very helpful, as I have not a clue how to remove and
reinstall RPC, especially when it seems to be working fine.
Anybody have any thoughts on how to resolve this issue?
Note: Would not think installing IIS and Windows Virtual Server 2005 R2
would have anything to do with DNS, but this error and problem started after
installation. I have since uninstalled Virtual Server.

Technet will not help with reinstalling RPC because reintalling RPC will not
take care of this, nor do I think it's possible. This is an idication of
another issue, usually can be based on communication or security. What
significant event occured right before this appeared? Did you install
something, such as a service pack, hotfix, update, or an application? Was
something changed recently? ANy other errors in Event logs (any of the
logs)?
Also, please post the following to further assist:
1. Unedited ipconfig /all of the DC and a sample client
2. Name of the AD DNS domain name
3. Are updates allowed on the zone in DNS that is based on the name in #2?
4. DO the SRV records appear under the zone name?
5. Run dcdiag /v /fix > c:\dcdiag.txt and post the dcdiag.txt file please
6. Run netdiag /v /fix > c:\netdiag.txt and post the netdiag.txt file please

That will work too, but thought to try lesser means to fix it. Glad you got
it going.
