Error 0x8107020c as hresult code in the Windows Task Scheduler (Solved!)

Question/Problem:

My task is reporting error 0x8107020c in the task scheduler, it doesn't want to start. I'm running Windows Server 2003.

The answer/solution:

This result code is very unique; it only occurs when the account the task uses to log on, cannot log on due to an unavailable domain controller. You can run the task again by either changing the credentials it uses to a local account (Administrator), or resolving the domain authentication issues.
