Cluster Build problem - Cluster Service wont start and install fai

We are trying to install and setup the first node of cluster, however the
setup fails when the Cluster Wizard attempts to start the Cluster Service.
When analyzing the ClCfgSrv.log file, it is apparent that the cluster
installation wizard successfully finds all the necessary resources, inclduing
Network resources, disk resources, Cluster Service Account Info, creates the
Cluster Hive, etc., but fails as soon as the wizard attempts to start the
Cluster service. The Cluster service actaully attempts to start twice and
produces the following errors in the ClCfgSrv.log file (See excerpt below).
Any ideas why?

I found MS KB article 890761 (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=890761)
which makes reference to NTLM being to strict, but I have confirmed that this
is not our issue. I was not able to find anything that details what the
'Win32 Exit Code= 0x000057' error is about though.

As for hardware and configuration, the servers are IBM BladeCenter HS20
servers running W2K3 Ent Ed and booting from the SAN. All nodes are powered
off except for the node we are trying to establish the cluster on. We have
enabled the MS "ManageDisksOnSystmBuses" registry hack as well. The SAN
storage resides on an IBM ESS 800 Shark and is presented via an SVC (Ver
3.1). We are using IBM SDDDSM (2.1.0.3, I think) with the Qlogic Storport
driver (9.0.1.93) and are able to see all of our storage appropriately. Any
and all help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Are your nodes in a dedicated OU within Active Directory? Do you have any
Group Policy Objects affecting them?

Cheers,

Rodney,
The server is currently in an OU that specifically does not get any Group
Policy with the exception of a Domain Policy, and that GP only sets high
level settings such as Event Logg sizes, # of failed logons, etc. I also ran
a Resultant Set of Policy (RSoP) and confirmed that it is not getting any
other policies and that the Local Security Policy is a minimal policy.
