RE: [ActiveDir] AD computer accounts being removed

[Brian Desmond]

Brenda-   I see the k12 email address (I run AD for Chicago Public Schools), first question I have to ask is do you have any lockdown software on these computers? DeepFreeze, Fortress, or similar? This will screw with and hose up computer password sync.   Thanks, Brian Desmond [EMAIL PROTECTED]   c - 312.731.3132     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brenda Casey Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2006 12:42 PM To: ActiveDir@mail.activedir.org Subject: [ActiveDir] AD computer accounts being removed   Occasionally computers will lose their account in Active Directory for no apparent reason. Sometimes it is a computer that has just joined the domain, while other times the machine has been a member of the domain for 2 years.  The computer can only be logged on by a local account (not a domain account).  To remedy this, the computer has to be disjoined from the domain, join a workgroup, then join the domain again.  As I am sure you all are aware, this is not only time consuming, but very inappropriate to have to do.    Has anyone else had this experience and how have you fixed it?   Thanks, Brenda
