I set up BACS (Broadcom Teaming) to team two NIC on a Windows 2003 Active Directory Domain Controller. Networking still works okay, I can ping the gateway etc, but both DNS and Active Directory fail to start with various 40xx errors.
The team that I created is Smart load Balancing with Failover, with one backup and only one in smart load balancing (So really it is just failover). I have the team the same IP address that the single active NIC had before.
Anyone seen this before, or have any ideas what the problem might be?

Security groups, group policy, users and computers and their passwords will be
inconsistent between domain controllers until this error is resolved, potentially
affecting logon authentication and access to network resources.
