I have the same issue. I am running Windows Server 2008 on my laptop, and for some reason the DNS client service keeps stoping. In addition to the above error, I also get the following:

If anyone has any suggestions, I would appreciate it.
As an added thought, this happens when I am NOT in the office. That coupled with the fact that the NlaSvc is the "Network Location Awareness" make me wonder if there isn't some issue with the firewall, or the services that manage the firewall state.
Thoughts anyone?
