Delete a client computer in network neighborhood

[BMW]

Hi, All:

There is one client computer which I can not access in network neighborhood. I have checked permissions and other stuff, still can not access it. I can get into other computers just fine. I only have one NT4 domain. I want to delete this client compter and then add it into the network again. How do I do this? Do I have to sync my PDC?

Thanks in advance!

What is the Client, Windows '9x or NT workstation???
You delete it by going into "Administrative Tools" "Server manager" on the PDC.
Can that PC get on to the network??? If so it won't be able to if you delete. And you have to go to it an get it back on the Network which is sometimes a monumental task. When you delete it you delete its SID and recreating it take a lot of adding an removing Protocols and re-booting. Login into a workgroup and back into the domain.

Are you sure that that PC is actually logining to the domain and not a workgroup consisting of itself???

If you click the computer name in Network Neighborhood and try to connect to it's shares, or try to map it's drives and you cant (as an admin)..the PC is 99% most likely a Win9x machine. By default, File & Printer sharing is not activated on 9x machines, so to solve the problem...get a Win9x disk, go to network Neighborhood properties, and install/activate "File and Printer sharing". This will correct the problem. You never said if it was online at all, so also make sure it has "Client for Microsoft Network" installed as well.
Good luck!
