I've imported a w2k3 dc into vmware's stage manager beta 1.0. server is in a
fenced network. I had previously shut down the server (vm) then imported
into stage manager. I receive error attempting to open ADUC: "naming
information cannot be located because: the specified domain either does not
exist or could not be contacted. contact your sys admin to verify that your
domain is properly configured and is currently online." any suggestions
appreciated.

What's the IP configuration of the DC? Have you tried running DCDiag/NetDiag?
