I built this WDS server that I made into a RODC also. After running the dcpromo, it get this error message that the WDS service is not started and could not start.
I found this so I tried changing the logon account to my domain admin account.
Now it gives me an error when I try to start the service saying:
"Windows could not start the Windows
Deployment Services Server service on
SERVER. Error 1297: A privilege that
the service requires to function
properly does not exist in the service
account configuration…"
Do I have to adjust some security settings somewhere for my domain account?

When you ran DCPROMO you effectively got rid of the "local security policy". You now need to assign the right through the "Domain Controller Security Policy".
