I'm no network whiz kid, just an old geezer trying to troubleshoot a a 7-PC,
2-printer network for a small nonprofit serving at-risk kids. The server
runs NT 4.0, the PC's are all Windows 2000.
After many months without any problems, the E.D.'s PC got all Netsky'd, and
after being repaied with the Netsky Repair Tool, now her PC can't log on to
the network. On Server Manager, her PC is greyed our. The network cable,
however, is definiely connected - it shows up clearly in the systray, and
when it's unplugged, it pops up immediately that it's been unpllugged.
I've spent way too many hours on this. On her pC, My Computer/ Properties/
Network ID keeps hanging on the difference between the "computer domain" and
the "user domain." It can't find the user domain, and nothing I put in
"computer domain" works. Might be come kind of DNS lookup problem, whatever
that is. Any simple, plain-English help would be greatly appreciated.
Urgent. Thanks.
