That error occurs for a number of reasons.

DNS misconfigured
Broken trust
WAN Link down
Other routed link down.
Domain Controller or service down.


Assuming a Windows domain, your member workstations and servers must be
able to contact a domain controller to authenticate the user. This
requires 2 basic things -

1) a working network connection on the client, server, and domain
controller.
2) name resolution so the client and server can contact the domain
controller.

In addition, if external trusts are in place between domains, the domain
controllers in each domain must be able to contact a DC in the other domain.
