Attention Chris and Corinna
I narrowd the problem down to one snapshot. The sevices start fine on the 
12/27/05
snapshot and don't start on the 12/29/05 snapshot.
I noticed that there were extensive changes by Chris on 12/29 so I have
no idea what change is responsible for this. Maybe you can sort this out.
Yadin.
