I changed my work laptop PC from a domain logon to a
workgroup logon so that I could join and use
resources on my home network. The laptop
now prompts for user id and password and does not
provide what was the optional domain. When I
provide the password that previously logged the computer
on both locally and to the domain when I had work network
connectivity, I am informed that the password is invalid.
I tried supplying the machine name and user id in the
user id field to no avail.
