switching between domain/workgroup

G

Guest

Is there a way to retain the settings for both a workgroup (at home in my
case) and the domain (at work)?

When I take my laptop home I have to join my home workgroup for access to
the printer. When I come back to work I must rejoin the domain.

Not exactly the worst problem but it is irritating to have to make the
change and reboot each time.

Thanks for any help,
Mike

Yes you can:
Go to your Network Properties and Disable your Domain Connection then Create
a new Connection setup your Workgroup, then you will Disable & Enable the
one you are wanting to use.
