Problem Logging on to Domain

This is an example of why not to mix personal and professional networks. The computer either is a domain member or it is not. What you describe is joining and disjoining domains.
The real (ugly) way to handle this is to install a second version of Windows and let it be a member of your home network while the first version is a member of the corporate network. You dedice at bootup where you want to be. Of course that means reinstalling all your software for the benefit of both registries.
I don't like this answer so don't feel obligated to accept it. Good luck to you jumping back and forth over the fence.

I have not fully tested this for your environment ( and not knowing the full config cant) so it may be a bit rough & unplesent.

If you wish to stay as part of the work domain but access a different computer network share when at home, you could leave your computer as work config only. When connecting to the PC at home use the ip address in the net use command This is VERY handy as it allows you have two credentials active.

Ie you logon to your laptop at home using the cached work credentials, just as if you were at your desk, it should work ( you might have to logon before connecting the ethernet cable)

Then connect to the other home pc using

net use h: \\10.1.1.1\sharename password /user:homedomain\username

The net use /h help screens dont tell you that you can use ip addresses instead of computername

I hope this works for you.

Ps If you are having printing problems, you should be able to do the same for a printer, map the LPT1: to a resource

net use lpt1: \\10.1.1.1\printername password /user:homedomain\username

You can then tell the printer driver to print to lpt1:

What about using the same username at home as at work? This should give you access to any protected shares at home. Use log on locally at home. You might need to modify your home workgroup name.
Regarding IP addresses, if it is DHCP assigned at work then let your home network use it's own IP addresses (APIPA) to connect.

I am a network administrator and have performed this task many times. I simply advise the end-users that if they wish to perform this type of home connectivity that they must do one of two things. Either use the same host name and computer name ontheir home network and use a router that has DHCP Services to grant IP assignments or they must not use it at all. I advise all of my end-users to purchase a router for their network (a extremely cheap investment that prevents numerous network problems). If your company is using static IP addresses, then you will need to configure the router for the same IP address and subnet mask. This is fool proof with some of the cheaper routers on the market today. If you setup a router and activate DHCP services on the router to assign IP's then you will be able to view any and all of the machines that are on your home peer to peer network as well as when you are in the office. I personally lock down the network settings within the local policy of the domain to prevent users from making these changes.
