Well, I got it working now.:D
No reboots needed anymore and authentication times and file transfers are fast again..

The solution is rather weird, but it works (for me at least):

In server admin i unchecked the “NTLMv2 & Kerberos” box
On the windows cients I’ve done the following.

Start -> Run “secpol.msc”
In the tree open and click Security Settings -> Local Policy -> Security Options
Scroll the left pane down to ‘Network Security: LAN manager authentication level’
Change this to ‘Send NTLMv2 response only\refuse LM & NTLM’ ‘

Maybe this helps someone else.

Thanks for your reply.

Basically I did a clean install and then restored the open directory backup.
Imported sharepoints, and dragged/dropped most of the settings back in via Server Admin.
IP is still the same.
The ethernet ports are now on link aggregation which wasn’t the case on the old server.

This best practices guide tells nothing about internal dns, it says you should avoid it which is not working for our situation here. Additionally, this article is only the basics of basic dns-configuration, nothing of use here *and* it references to Panther Server, not Tiger Server.
