Carmine,
The best thing you could do is try logging into that machine using
Administrator, with no pass. If that works then simply add it to a
workgroup, reboot, then re-add it to the domain. If you don't have the admin
pass it may be blank, otherwise has any user been given admin rights as they
could do this also...

Subject: XP Admin Password Recovery
Hello,
This may be OFF-Topic due to it being on XP.
I have an XP PC with IDE Raid. The PC lost connectivity, or more accurately,
it lost credentials with the network. The local admin password is unknown
and the user does not want to reinstall/repair.
I do have a Linux Boot Disk that allows me to change admin password.
However, due to the fact that this is IDE RAID, the disk cannot mount the
partition. The linux does have SCSI drivers, but does not have IDE RAID
drivers. I have the IDE RAID drivers available on a different diskette. I am
unsure if how to load them with the Linux Boot Disk.
Has anyone come across this and can you offer any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any assistance on this.
Carmine
