Well, I did this to myself, but I really need some help.
We just merged with another church and one of their staff persons brought his desktop to our building for me to put on our network. They were using DOMAIN1 at their old building and I wanted to put them into our DOMAIN2 but I didn't want to get the hassle right now of redoing all their settings, etc. To get around this, I brilliantly decided to just put them in a workgroup for DOMAIN2 instead. I figured they had XP Pro, so it would authenticate to the domain in its presence, so no big deal. When I rebooted, the login screen comes up but won't accept any of the passwords that were set. I opened the details intending to log into the local machine but that option no longer shows up. The only thing you can choose is User and Password. Any ideas? I would REALLY appreciate some help on this one. Thanks.
