Windows 2000 Login problems

G

Guest

I'm experiencing difficulties logging into my Windows 2000 computer. When I
type in my domain login credentials, it begins the log in process, but soon
after it logs me back off. However logs on with the local Admin account with
no problems. Does anyone know what would cause that?

What happens if you logon as a new user? (create a new account in 'Users and
Passwords').

Same thing local accounts are ok but domain accounts are logged off.
should also say this is a member server in a NT4 domain.

Is this a server or workstation? Can you connect to any network resources
using those domain credentials from this machine? Any system log errors?

Might be a damaged permissions problem. This article may help.

How to Restore the Default NTFS Permissions for Windows 2000
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=266118

The article is a little deceptive. At step 7 create a new database.
