Windows Firewall blocking LSASS, causing DCOM launch error

I am having a problem with several Windows Server 2003 SP1 servers on our
domain that have the Windows Firewall service running, but Windows Firewall
configured "off" (by domain policy). I turned on ALL auditing (since I don't
know what I am looking for!) and see that Windows Firewall is blocking LSASS
listening on a UDP port soon after a reboot. Oddly, nothing is logged in
C:\Windows\pfirewall.log. It seems to be a random port number. Below are
three example Event Log entries.
When I try to create a remote out of process DCOM object and the server is
one of the affected servers, it fails to launch the process (DCOM Server
Process Launcher cannot communicate with LSASS?) and I immediately get an
E_ACCESSDENIED error returned. If I disable the Windows Firewall service and
reboot, the problem does not occur. What is going on here? Thanks,
Paul
