Disjoining and joining the domain worked.   Forced a replication (I have 
two DC's in my domain), and waited a few minutes before joining the 
domain.

Thanks to all...

Re: Computer Account Problem - AD



Try removing the machine from the domain (from the problem machine), then 
reset the account and then readd the machine.  If the machine is really 
having issues then wipe and rebuild.  Sorry this is the best I can come up 
with.  You might also look to make sure the NIC is functional, but in my 
environment that has been rarely the problem.

I have a domained computer (on a Win3k domain) that all of a sudden when 
the user tries to log on they get the message..."Windows cannot connect to 
the domain, either because the domain controller is unavailable, or 
because your computer account was not found." 

If I unplug the computer from the network, log the user on, then connect 
back to the network, I have all domain capabilities. 

Tried resetting the computer account in AD, but to not avail.
