Re: DHCP user gets Account Disabled error frequently

This still doesn't make much sense. The user account and machine account are

OK, the best I can find is that on the server in the event log I have
event ID 5723 entries from that terminal. I understand that the user
account and the computer account are not associated, and I know for a
fact it is not a user account issue, but that is the error she gets
when trying to log in.

The only other strange phenomenon is that upon getting a DHCP lease and
logging in, the entry in the DHCP server under leases shows the other
(that logs in fine) laptop as laptop1.mycompany.lan as the name, and
this laptop shows as just: "laptop2." with no domain afterwards. I have
checked HKLM under tcpip parameters, and the correct domain is there.

It seems like it is either related to the computer name, or it may be a
DNS issue. It is a strange problem and there really are no error
messages to quote unfortunately. She can log in fine at any of the
desktop PC's at the location that have static IP's. And other laptop
users can log in fine via DHCP at this location.
