Ensure domain users can login to their workstations when domain is unavailable

Tags: Microsoft, Windows, XP, Windows XP and Windows 2003 domain issue
We have users using Windows XP sp2 on a Win2k3 domain. The users have regular domain user accounts that they use to log on to the system with.

Some of them are taking their systems with them to work from home. How can I ensure that they'll be able to login to their accounts from home where our domain will be unavailable.

I worry that when they try to log inthey will get an error saying that they canot login because "DomainXYZ is unavailable." I do not want to have to create new user accounts for them, I want them to be able to continue using their same accounts.

The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is.
