Don't really remember who start thies thread.  Andrew P. maybe?  Could
you put a log file from the failed profile update on the web.  A debug
level of 20.  Maybe a netmon sniff as well if you have access to it.  
If not, the possibly a tcpdump file in raw format available for
download.

For those interested, this behavior has been documented in the
docs/NTDOMAIN.txt file as well as the NTDOM FAQ.
