This is another wierd one
I had a machine that was working fine. It's running on NT4.0 and was connected to my Windows 2000 Server (Active Directoy) I could see it in the list of computers and access it just fine through the network. Now I can't. For some strange reason, the workstation (when I try to connect to the network) displays an error "Trust relationship between the workstation and the domain has failed." I have taken it out of the domain, rebooted and put it back in. Taken it out rebooted, put it back in and rebooted, etc. but still nothing. What could have happened? How can I fix this

Thanks-
 
Roy un-join the computer from the Active Directory and Delete the computer
account from Active Directory. Then try to re-join the computer.

See if that helps.

Thanks Chris,

But tried that and tried changing the name of the workstation and rejoining. It seems as if it can see the domain initially, but after the "Welcome to this domain" messagebox appears, I can't browse to it or can it browse to any machine on the network.
 
Roy can you type the UNC of a server in the network for example.
\\server\share\ and access it from this workstation?
