Unable to Manage Users since aborted attempt to join Domain

permalink · 10-20-2007

Since failing to join my Vista Business system to a Windows SBS Domain I am
unable to manage other users or create new user accounts. I get no error
messages just a failure of anything happening. Would prefer not to reinstall
any ideas?

Hello,

what does Right-click Computer -> Properties -> on the left: Advanced system
settings -> tab "Computer name" -> Workgroup say?
Try if it works again if you click "Network ID..." and follow the wizard.

Greetings,
P. Di Stolfo

Many thanks for your response. The settings show the correct Workgroup. Have
applied a number of patches to the SBS and now have successfully connected to
the domain but when I revert to the Workgroup still unable to manage users. I
now get a known compatability problem message so will be applying patches and
see if that resolves the issue, will post when done.
