Network resources unavailable after cold boot

We have recently ran into an issue with network resources not being available
after a cold boot, specifically mapped drives and home folders. There are no
errors or warnings in either the system or application event viewer.

The issue can be resolved by either manually restarting the netlogon service
and starting the workstation service (which does not start, even though set
to automatic), or by performing a warm boot.

This has been plaguing us for approx. 3 months. Performing a restore to last
known good configuration also resolves it, but only until a windows update is
performed, then it breaks again, even if no updates are installed.

Ideas?

This isn't realy a fix but a work around. I would setup a group
ploicy that ran the batch file as a logon script. This is under User
Configuration/Scripts, or I would add the batch file to everyones
startup folder.
