First, you mention that you have a password, do you also
have a username? Also, next to one of the domains you
should see the text "(this computer)". This is the only
domain that you'll be able to log onto (except cached
accounts) now that you'r no longer one of the original 2
domains. With the chached accounts for the you may not
have the right username and password combo, or even if you
do, it may not be an admin account. At any rate, verify
that you have the right username/password combo for the
(this computer) domain. Let us know what you come up with.
