I'd guess that it's something to do with NetBIOS name resolution. Make
sure that your DHCP server is issuing the new WINS server address. Also
check to make sure that WINS isn't manually specified on the clients.
You should be able to join the domain by using the NetBIOS name.
Good luck,
R

It seems like once I rejoin, everything is ok? I just don't why this
would
happen in the first place?

once you disjoin/rejoin... does everything function correctly or do
you still have problems connecting to directory services?
if you are still having problems... check this out:
