I recently crashed my SME server 6.01-01 and now installed a 6.5RC1 version of the SME server, in the server-gateway mode.
I restored my last backup made of the 6.01-01 configutation and everything looks OK on the outside: my webserver etc. is online and has internet access is alive and kicking as well.
However the workstation (Win XP SP2) which used to be a member of the domain before I crashed my server is not able to access my local domain anymore.
I already removed it from the domain and placed in to a workgroup. That worked out OK and XP stated that it needed to reboot to apply the changes... so I did.
But to my surprise I am not able to add the PC to the domain anymore (I get an access denied error when I enter the administrator credentials, they are correct as I verified them by logging in at the server it self).
I think I might have removed my local workstation from the domain with the network cable plugged out (Aargh... I thought this was not be possible... but it seems I am mistaken and it is possible) and that the changes therefore where not applied at the server configuration.
Is there a way to let the server know that this workstation is removed from the domain so I can add it again? Or is this not the source of the problem and is there a different reason? Please help me out!
Thanks!
