A user took a laptop home this weekend and had trouble logging on. On the next attempt, he checked to box to login via a dial-up connection even though ther is no way this would have worked. Now there is no option to logon to the domain or the local machine, only the dial-up connection.

My understanding is that you would need the ERD, be able to login via dial-
up, or remotely connect to the machine to correct the registry setting.

We don't have an ERD for this machine, no dial in connections, and the machine says that it is unavailable for remote connection in the office.

Do I have any other options to get this machine back onto the domain?

First logon locally as administrator. There must be an administrator account unless the user was stupid enough to remove it.
