| Login Failure: changed primary dns suffix and now cannot login Was helping a friend setup a windows domain and on a client computer changed the Primary DNS Suffix. Upon resarting the client machine we can no longer login to windows XP Pro with the only User/Pass account on that machine. I am sure we have done something silly and hopefully easilly repairable |

| RE: Login Failure: changed primary dns suffix and now cannot login There should be a dropdown on the login-screen which will allow you to select a local logon instead of the domain. Once on, check the network settings, and see that you can resolve/ping the server by hostname. It's unlikley that the domain suffix would cause this, more likely the DNS server IP or suchlike has been changed as well. |
