I have a network that is on a domain called administration. I have been setting up a new network for the computers on Administration that will run on a domain called ohioprincipals (controlled by a Samba Primary Domain Controller). The administration domain is run on an NT4 server and all of the clients are Windows 2000 machines. I have my new network pretty much up and ready to switch over. My first test was on a windows 2000 machine that was on the NT4 administration network. I ran the network ID wizard under My Computer--Identification and put in all of the relevant info to join my new domain (had to change the computer name). Everything seemed to go okay and it told me to restart the computer. When I restarted the computer I got the win 2k logon screen with a choice of logon to the new computer name or the new domain. I selected the new domain put in my information and clicked enter. Everything went okay until all of the sudden i got an error message that said something like windows could not locate your profile ERROR: Access Denied. So I tried connecting a computer that was NOT on the previous network (administration) and everything worked perfectly and I logged right on w/no error message. So, now I am thinking there may be a problem with the Windows 2000 machine because it was already on another domain (and controlled by another primary domain controller). It will not even let me log into the computer at all. When i try logging into the network I get that error message, when i try logging on with the new computer name instead of the domain (those are my only 2 choices) none of the username and passwords are accepted. I must say I am stumped. Is there anyway to fix this? If not is there anyway to get the files off of the drive or anyway around the login screen? If anyone can point me in the right direction or just tell me what i need to do i would greatly appreciate it. Thanks. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx
So you can't even do a local login? No offense but did you check your caps lock? Dmitry Tyler Durdin wrote:> I have a network that is on a domain called administration.
