Can't join domain...weird XP Pro behavior

I have a laptop running WinXP Pro SP3 that was joined to the domain but was unable to 'browse' any of the server resources.

Figuring the issue was a trust relationship issue, I decided to just rejoin it to the domain.

Now when I attempt to join the domain I get error messages of "connection lost" on a hard wired connection.

I went over to the server and deleted the computer name out of AD and when I tried to join the laptop to the domain I get a different error. If I manually create the computer name back in I get the first error msg again so I know that the laptop and server are kinda talking.

I can ping the server by name and IP from the laptop....I just can't browse server shared resources from this laptop. Other PCs on the network can see the server shares just fine.

I ran WinSockFix (just in case) but still no go.

Here is the netsetup.log after I attempted to rejoin from the laptop:

Any ideas? No firewalls, a/v, or spyware apps are running.
