XP or Win 7?
Can they login specifying the SERVER name in the from field? Or may
login as "SERVER\username."
I had something a little weird with Win 7 clients where they
occasionally had problems logging in offline with domain credentials.
(This happended if they did hibernate instead of a shutdown before
disconnecting from the LAN.) They would be able to login specifying
the server name instead of the domain name. I belive the SID for all
the DC's is the same anyway.
I had 3 domain controllers at the time - Alpha, Gamma , Zeta. the
domain name was Beta. Those aren't actually the names BUT the
alphabetical order was the same. An offline Win 7 user if unable to
login as BETA\username might be able to login as ALPHA\username.

Hello,
I am faced with the exact same problem described here:
http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2008-October/144077.html
Viz my server is out of order and nobody (except one lucky user) can
open his session from the Windows cache.
I am quite sure that the problem resides in the domain name being
wrong within the account (the server BIOS name instead of the domain
name).
The server is down (hardware fault) and therefore pdebedit -I <domain>
<user> is not accessible.
Is there a way to hack the Windows cache (registry ?) to alter that
field in order to allow the user to open its session and recover his /
her "My documents" ?
Many thanks
