resolved: and here it is.<br />
<br />
For whatever reason, logging in on XP machines using domain\userName &nbsp;in the user name field was resulting in the error.<br />
<br />
When I used my userName in the name filed, then chose the domain from the drop down, it worked.<br />
<br />
Perhaps a recent change to the DCs after a recent patching?, but very strange.<br />
<br />
Thanks for the help!

Out of the blue, I'm unable to log new machines into the domain. &nbsp;I can join machines to domain, but when I try to log into the domain on them, I get the error &quot;Account Not Found!&quot;<br />
<br />
I see the machines have been joined under the computers group when I look in AD, so they are being added.<br />
<br />
Disjoining them, renaming and rejoining has no effect.<br />
<br />
Know what is up?
