Sorry,  it is  2007 standard edition.  we have not made any changes to AD or it policies  and the system has been up and running fine for almost 2 years

Sorry, I have only seen that with EE version, in which case lcscmd command line was used to reregister the pool...  might have to call MS for this one...

If it were me, since you can build an OCS box in less than an hour, I would just export the users using DBIMPEXP , rebuild, then DBIMPEXP /Import.

We did end up contacting Microsoft on this issue it seems like the OCS RTC Users had lost there permissions on the active directory domain and they reran the domain prep and it began working correctly.
