Old domain name issue

Jurge · 02-05-2007, 01:12 PM

Hi

I recently formatted a win2k server running WINs and DNS (that never worked)
Now i have a fully working 2k server running DNS (working) with a new domain name

the workstations (XP pro) have been added to the new domain but still show the old domain and old PCs that were registerd on it (in network neighborhood)

were does the XP workstation get the old domain info from is it on stored in some file on the workstaion itsself?

If you right click on my computer click on properties and then go to the Computer Name tab. Here is were it will let you change the domain. Also if you go to the Advanced tab and click on setting under User Profiles you can delete the user account that are still tied to the old domain.
