Based on a quick read I noticed that anonymous was trying to join the domain
with the Local Admin account. In order to get a computer to join a domain
you need "Domain Admin" priviledges. Normally your system administrator
would have these. So to answer the question you need to get an account that
has these priviledges and type in "domain\username" then the password. If
you dont have priviledges you cant join. Also dont worry about deleting the
computer account from AD as if the computer has not been rebuilt etc. then
it will still have the same SID and thus AD will recognise the computer and
allow it to use the same AD computer account.

You can access the VPN because your user account has priviledges to do so.
It has no bearing on your computer, which is why you can connect from any
machine.
