Computer Account is unable to log on to W2K3 AD Domain

Asked by saliyam in Active Directory

Tags: Microsoft, Windows Server, 2003 AD

Hi,

I have imaged a laptop, run Newsid to change the SID & changed the name. However, when the user tries to log on to the domain a message appears that the domain name is invalid & not available.
The only difference I noticed between the 2 computer accounts is that on the one where the user cannot log on there is no DNS name appearing in the properties of the computer account in AD.
