Computer Account not in AD, Cannot login locally... What to do?

Hello,
  We have a computer that is no longer an object in Active Directory after a SBS 2003 Migration from SBS 2003. Now the computer cannot connect to the domain and I don't have the local administrator priviledges to login locally to join it to the domain. I have a Remote Connection setup to the computer, but cannot log in. Is there anyway to connect this computer to the domain without the local administrator password?
Thanks

Hi personificator,

          I dont think a way exists in your issue. I suggest you to reset local administrator password by following this article

Personally, I would go ahead and reset the local administrator's password and rejoin the domain.  Here is a prominent PAQ regarding the procedure...
