Question Unable to join a domain

Of the 14 machines running Windows XP Pro, only three machines that are unable to join the domain controller. The error message on those three computers are:

The following error occured attempting to join the domain "myDomain":
The specified server cannot perform the requested operation.

Any help is much appreciated.

Question

I have tried the nslookup of the domain server with just the computer name and two IP address showed up.

nslookup myComp
Server: myComp.myDomain.local
Address: 192.168.1.79

Server: myComp.notMyDomain.local
Address: 192.168.1.82

However, if I do a nslookup of the myDomain.local, I got this:

nslookup myDomain.local
Server: myComp.myDomain.local
Address: 192.168.1.79

Server: myDomain.local
Address: 192.168.1.79

Is this normal? I believed the problem I'm having is because it listed two different IP address. Could this be the problem? If it is, how do I resolve or trouble shoot this?
