on a compaq dl380.

The drives are (4) 9 gb scsci drives.

Replaced with (4) 18 gb scsi drives

Installed win2k server on new drives but same machines.

Replaced the 18gb with the original 9gb drives

Booted fine but the problem is now none of the passwords are working. And the original 9gb drive is not trusted.

With the 18gb drives installed win2k server and named it the same as the 9gb (master) could that be the problem? Anyone have any suggestion on how to fix it?

TIA
Daniel

Hi

I suggest you to check the services in your 2000 / nt machine . i think you have problem in services

to solve the password problem ( just to login ) delete the sam file and u will be able to logina as administrator with blank password but i think all uswers in your server machinre will deleted so that u can create it again from the administration tools

Good luck

I figured it out.

What I had to do was logon locally (figured out the pw). Then exit the domain the rejoin the domain.. Was an issue of trust. Thanks for you help.
