I set up a Win2K Adv Ser w/ SP4. It has WINS & DNS running, but I’m allowing my router to allocate IP’s via its own DHCP service. The DHCP is set w/ the server’s WINS address, so all systems grabbing an IP automatically point to the server for WINS.
I am able to log onto the domain from an XP (SP3) system. It runs scripting to map network drives (personal, group shares, etc.), but when I press ctrl+alt+del to change the password, it displays the following error:
“The system cannot change your password now because the domain [XXXXXX] is not available.”
I’m pretty sure the machine & user are getting authenticated on the domain when logging in, otherwise the login script wouldn’t run (right?).
I don’t know if this would be a server or workstation issue…but I am loathe to reimage the workstation because the original XP cd is scratched and won’t load properly. And the only ghost image I have is for a different system w/ different hardware/software.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
