Domain – Can’t join Windows 7 to SBS 2008 Domain .. Could do with some help?(logs posted)

domaindomain-controllerwindows 7windows-sbs-2008

We have been getting this error for a while now while we try to connect a new windows 7 x64professional to a SBS 2008 domain.
I have done

net use \\Domaincontroller.internaldomain.local\ipc$ /u:internaldomain.local\administrator password

And it comes back with the following:

System error 71 has occurred.
No more connections can be made to this remote computer at this time because the
re are already as many connections as the computer can accept.

The Server is running Small Business Server 2008 and I was under the impression we didn't have to install CAL's on the server itself but just to keep a record of them?
There is only one domain controller in our network but there is 2 server 2003 servers

Reading the netsetup.log :

But I can't find any information anywhere that helps.

Can anyone suggest anything?

Check your clocks. Is your clock on the Windows 7 computer within 5 minutes of the clock on the DC? Are they in the same time zone?
