Hi!

If your using Windows XP or older, you should see a dropdown: LOG ON TO: you can select (this computer)..

If that's WindowsVista or WIndows7, click on "How to log in to another Doamin?".. That will show you a format to use for the username box e.g: computername\username

If this won't work, try to restarted in Safemode w/ Networking, log in to the Administrator account.. from there you can create a new local account...

Hope this helps.. :D

When you removed the computer form the domain, you can no longer login as a domain user. You need to know the login credentials of a local user of that machine. (Administrator, is almost always a username, ans you would need to know the password of that user. Thanks!

We are a UK based web design company. We have built websites for 4 Irish Companies. All have purchased new domains from Eircom direct. We have been trying to set these live for the past two months but seem...

This sounds like a company that I wouldn't want to work with for any extended period of time. Thankfully, once you purchase domain names they are yours to do with what you wish and there is no law stating that you must leave your domains with that company. People transfer domains from one management registrar to another all the time.

This website gives you a good explanation of everything and will take you through the steps of getting it transferred if this is what you would like to do.

I personally use GoDaddy because I can do zone updates myself. It's quick, easy and pretty reliable.

I want to open email a/c for my company which is pvt. ltd. but normally when create account regular detail is displayed is there any special ac for company

There is no other option for creating an Yahoo email account than the standard free email account. Go here: https://edit.yahoo.com/registration Fill out the account registration form and click Create My Account.

Personally, for a company I would recommend you get a domain name (they are often on sale on GoDaddy for under $2). Login to your domain account page and you can find an option to add an email account to your domain. If you already have a web-hosting account, email is normally included. Before purchasing the option for a mailbox, ensure that this is not already included in your account.

When i log in it says my account has been locked

Hello

Where are you trying to login and what exactly is giving you the message?

If you are trying to login to your computer, try powering it off and then turn it back on again to check if the login problem goes away.

2 domains with a one-way trust relationship. Users on the 2nd domain have to re-login in order to use resources on the 1st domain. Is there a timeout on the trust? What is causing this?

It sounds like you might be dealing with 2 issues here.

When you setup a one way trust they are non-transitive. What this means is one of the domains (say A) is the Trusting domain and the other (B) is the Trusted domain. If you are familiar with the graphic presentations of trust relationships think of 2 circles, one labeled A and the other B. There would be an arrow pointing towards domain B from domain A. Users in B can use resources in A. Users in A cannot access resources in B. Global groups from B can be used in A, but not vice versa. Domain B will appear in the login box in the A computers, but Domain A will not appear in the Domain B login screen.Users and groups in a trusting domain cannot be assigned permissions, rights, or access to a trusted domain. If you want all users to be able to use resources in all domains then you would have to setup 2 way Trust Relationships.

The issue that you are having with users having to relogin may be tied to a domain server not copying down login information to all other servers on the network. Make sure that all of your primary domain servers are setup to speak to all of your other primary and secondary domain servers.

Windows cannot connect domain either domain controller is down or otherwise unavailable or because your computer was not found

The resolution and workaround to solve the error is as below.
  1. Login to the Windows 2003 domain controller, and delete the computer account object from the Active Directory by using Microsoft Management Console (MMC) which you can always access from “Manage Your Server”.
  2. Log-in to the PC workstation as local administrator. If you cannot logon as local administrator, try to unplug the network cable and logon to the computer by using a domain administrator user that used to logon on the PC before, by using cached logon credentials feature.
  3. Go to Control Panel, then click on System icon, then go to Computer Name tab.
  4. Unjoin the computer from the domain by clicking on “Change”. You should see that Domain button is now selected. Remember your domain name in the text box. Select (Click) on “Workgroup” to remove the computer from the domain, and put any workgroup name in the text box (e.g. workgroup).
  5. Click OK to exit.
  6. Restart the computer (optional)
  7. Go back to the Control Panel, launch System properties and then go to Computer Name tab, and click on “Change”.
  8. Rejoin the domain by uncheck the Workgroup button and select (check) Domain button, and put in the domain name noted above into the text box.
  9. Click OK to exit.
  10. Reboot the PC.
This should solve the unable to logon to domain error, without changing or losing the user profiles on AD.
