On trying to remove a old server from the directory (2003 server in a 2003 forest) I received this error
Failed to configure the service NETLOGON as requested “the wait operation timed out.”
The root problem was that this domain controller had a DNS entry to another domain controller that no longer existed. It was trying to contact it but couldn’t. Removing that entry and running dcpromo.exe again solved it.
Try to stop netlogon service and run again dcpromo.
Goodluck !!!

If we have net logon and doing DCpromo its saying :unknown Interface:……Any oder options?
