When the problem occurs attempt to ping the NT PDC by tcp/ip
address. If this is successful you can most likely rule out cable, NIC,
or routing problems. Next attempt to map to a share on the PDC. Is
this successful? If not what is the exact error you are seeing? BTW
the SAM is not lost, its unreachable. The user accounts you see are
short cuts or pointers to the actual user account which resides in the
NT 4.0 domain. When the domain is unreachable the user accounts
cannot be identified.
