>>However when I try and attach to my Home PC I still get the error.
Please explain what you mean by this. Attach how and from where?
What accounts and domains are you using? (feel free to obscure the names in
some consistent fashion)

Subject: RE: Logging onto Domains and Workgroups
Hi Guys.
I'm still having troubles with this workgroup and domain. I have done what
you've all suggested. Basically what is the the below article.
http://www.ultratech-llc.com/KB/?File=MobileUser.TXT
However when I try and attach to my Home PC I still get the error.
"there are currently no logon servers available to service the
logon request
Does the Home machine need to be logged on as the laptop account or another
account? The share permissions are set to full control for Everybody so
there shouldn't be any permissions problems.
Help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Ali

As several people have already mentioned, you don't want to change the
logon that you use on the laptop. Continue to logon to the domain so
that everything is the same from the laptops perspective.
The other machines in the home network just need to have an account
created for them, or you will have to access everything from the
laptop on a MACHINE\Account basis.
See the following:
