The LanmanWorkstation Service on my DC is not starting, causing whole bunch of havoc.

Net cmd and the mmc report it started, BUT I get an event saying otherwise:

EventID 7023 from Service Control Manager
"The Workstation service terminated with the following error: The redirector is in use and cannot be unloaded."

Additionally the whole array of services relying on it will not start and give me the "Workstation service not started" error.

To top it all off Active Directory keeps on yelling "Naming information cannot be located because the specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted", which from what I understand is also because of Lanman. ...and of course you can't log onto the directory, so I'm logging on from cached.

ADDITIONAL INFO
*I've upped the LanmanWorkstations MAX TREADS to 50.
*Related Event (Maybe): Event 3019 from MRxSmb
"Redirector failed to determine the connection type."

Thank you so much for your advice!!
