I have one domain w2k with 2 dc (one has RID and PDC the
other Infrac. Master), with 350 users.
In Some pc´s, when the user changes the password on the
welcome screen, gives one error saying that the password
is wrong or domain is not available, but if the users
wait´s about 1 minute and insert the new password it
works correctly.
The pc gives an error of netlogon saying that was unable
to update the host record.

Can somebody give me a hint how to resolve this problem

Thanks in advance
 
At your DC run dcdiag and netdiag to diagnose your DC. When the user changes
password on specific DC, it is replicated to other DC's using normal
replication, concurrently the password is urgently replicated to the server
holding PDC role. At the authentication time if client enters a wrong
password (nor replicated jet) the client is referred to server holding PDC
role and thus authentication must succeed. In your case I would check server
holding PDC role. What SP level is installed on your server ?
