Remote computer "domain trust" error is driving me crazy

Hi, I have a few remote workstations that were setup inside our main network at the headquarters then deployed to a remote site. At the remote site the appropriate IP addresses were changed so the computer would be able to web browse and get through the PIX 501 Firewall I have at that location.

User accounts for the person using the computer at that time were added to the machine at initial setup on the internal network. But people have changed jobs and come and gone and now I can't add a new user to the local machine because of a "trust relationship" failure of some sort. It's odd because I have a few that have this problem and a few that I can add a new person too remotely with no error.

I read that under Active Directory Users and Computers I can right click the computer and reset the account.

What does resetting it do exactly and might this help my issue?

Thank you.
