Hello there. Windows XP Pro system that accesses a network. All of a sudden, while disconnected from the network, using a laptop, Windows won't accept the cached username/password. Windows says either the password or domain are incorrect. However, I am the pc tech for my company and I have verified that the username/password/domain are correct. In fact, I am able to log into the machine as administrator using cached username/password/domain. Just to be sure I logged on with the username/password/domain on another machine (connected to the network) with no problems. This person has not changed password in several months and logged into the machine while offline as recently as yesterday. Caps lock and num lock have been checked. Has anyone ever heard of cached username/password becoming corrupt and why? Thanks in advance.
