HI all,

I am a domain user with local admin rights trying to loggin into winxp
on my laptop unsuccessfully because the domain is unavailable and it
wont allow me to log in.
I know this is because of the cached credentials limited to a low
number in the registry which I have used up and to refresh I would
require to connect to a domain but i wont have that luxury for few
days and I need to access some files.

Does anybody has a idea for a workaround so I can logon to winxp, its
quite urgent as I need to finish some work.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

You must use a local account to log on until you can reconnect
the machine to your domain.

bit of a problem there as I don't know the details of the local account

You need to talk to your administrator, and/or perhaps review
your support arrangements if you cannot reach him over the
weekend.
 
Thanks for advice but in the end I drove to the office for refreshing
my credentials on a sunday.

Thanks for the feedback. Did you review your after-hours
support arrangements?

You may have missed out on some of the responses. I told the
OP to ask his SysAdmin for a local user account and to organise
things so that he can obtain after hours support.
