I disjoined a pc now from the domain ,tried to get it back in ,received
(access denied) error when tried to join it back to the domain!!
it seems that not all the xp machines are affected ,some is still abale to
browse the network shares ,and i can't understand that cause all the mchines
either Vista or XP is using static IPs not DHCP ,and here's the IPCONFIG
output for this machine:
IP :192.168.1.52
subnet:255.255.255.0
gateway:192.168.1.4 (isa server installed)
the out put for the DC is:
IP :192.168.1.6
subnet:255.255.255.0
gateway:192.168.1.4
here's the event log from the XP machine:

Greetings:
Everything was going normal until yesteday ,suddenly all the XP
workstatios are prompted for a username and password when trying to
browse the shared folders on the DC ,I tried supplying in the
Domain's admin credentials but the login screen kept coming back ,the
surprising thing is that all the workstations running Vista is not
affected and still able to access shared folders without any problems
,I checked the shared folders and made sure that all the sharing
settings are enabled ,so what can I do now?
Thanks in advance
What was the last thing that happened right before this? Ran a recent
update, did you install something, did you change something? How are the
XP workstations different than the Vistas? Are the Vistas DHCP and the XP
static or the other way around? Perhaps they are on a different switch or
subnet?
For starters for us to diagnose this, we need to work from scratch
basically so, please post an unedited ipconfig /all from the DC, an XP and
a Vista machine.
Post any Event log errors (post the EventID# and Source names)
Does the AD zone in DNS exists and do the SRV records exist?
You MUST elaborate to better assist otherwise we're all here guessing and
I'm sure you don't want us to do that.
