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. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Logon cached credentials error: The system cannot log you on now because the domain is not avaliable

Asked by oaadmin in Windows XP Operating System, Operating Systems Network Security

Tags: Windows XP, logon cache, domain

We have a few computers that have received this error when logging on to their laptop off the network:

The system cannot log you on now because the domain is not avaliable

We have tried clearing the logon cached credentials, and then had the user re-cache their logon by doing the following steps:

Clear the users cache from the machine by setting cachedlogonscount
value to 0 under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

Change the cachedlogonscount value to 10 and cached the users
credentials once again.

In all the cases we've had though, the user has been travelling, and is not able to re-connect to our network to re-cache the logon. Does anyone have a solution to prevent this error from happening? And/or some insight as to what can cause this?

Clearing the cached credentials appears to fix the problem once it has happened, but we need some help to find out what is causing this, and a way to prevent it.
