XP on NT Domain - Trust Failure

[chris.ruffley]

I have an XP workstation, a member of a random workgroup
name - not a member of my NT 4 domain, logged on as a
local user with the same username as a legitimate domain
account, but with a different password. When I connect to
a domain resource, I do not get challenged for a
username/password that has rights to the resource. The XP
box passes my local logon info to the Domain Controller.
As stated - the username is the same, the password
different. It does this 5 times and then locks out the
domain account. How do I get XP to prompt for legitimate
user credentials when accessing resources outside of its
logon workgroup and/or domain, rather than just passing
the local logon account credentials?

The NT domain controllers are Service Pack 6a, this
happens with all XP workstations tested, from vanilla to
SP1, full hotfix deployed.

The domain controller recognizes the account name, but denies access because of the
bad password it sees. You are goung to need to give the user a different logon name
in one of the places if you are not going to use the same password. --- Steve

why dont you just have the xp machines join the NT domain?
