I am running server 2008R2 and I cannot get the Server for NIS service to start. When I click start in the services mmc it returns a dialog box with Error 1067. I have not found any other errors for NIS or IDMU. My original 2003 DC with SFU 3.5 failed catastrophically and I promoted this new server (was already a GC). I had to use ntdsutil to seize all roles except PDC and Infrastucture Masters.
The only error recorded in the logs follows:
