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

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