I would recommend that you keep the default admin account disabled, and that you create a local admin account. (In the event that the domain goes down) If you are in a live production environment I recommend creating very strong passwords consisting of several uppercase, lowercase, symbols and...

I am truely at a lost for this one. I have no idea what could be wrong at this, considering you've exhausted a TON of options. I could recommend a reinstall of the OS, but even that seems a little extreme for the situation considering you can live without it.
