Hmm. If this Dell computer is a domain member run netdiag [on install disk in
support/tools folder -run setup] on it to see if any failed tests/errors/warnings
show, particularly for dns, dclist, and domain membership/secure channel. Enable
auditing of logon events in Local Security Policy on your Dell and on one of the
workstations you are trying to mange and then look in the security log in Event
Viewer for anything that may provide a clue. Try connecting to the target computer
with IP address instead of computer name to see if that makes any difference. I don't
know if it will work but I would also try booting into safe mode with networking and
try it that way to see if it makes any difference by bypassing many startup
programs/services. --- Steve
