Hi,
I am using windows server 2003
I changed my computer name and workgroup. After that, I restarted the system and I am unable to login.
My system is not a stand alone and working in domain.

If you changed the workgroup name then the computer is no longer in the domain. You'll have to log in with a local administrator account and re-join the domain before you can log in using a domain account again.

If you changed the PC to a workgroup, you just made it a stand-alone system by removing it from the domain. Even if the system is part of a Workgroup, it's technically a "stand-alone" although it's on the network because all the user accounts are local to the computer.
