XP workstation drops SME domain every couple of days
« on: July 27, 2004, 01:58:53 AM »
I have 2 windows xp workstations authenticating to a large SME 6.0.1 domain (PDC with over 50 workstations).  Every couple of days though these two particular workstations loose connection to the domain.  

I have worked around the issue by logging the workstations off the domain and logging them back on.

This works fine, but the problem comes back after a couple of days.  Anyone know of any way or ideas I can use to fix this issue once and for all???

Recently I have started having a very simular problem with 2 workstation on our network. Our happens about every 24 hours maybe faster then this but I dont have a way of checking.

Thus far we also have been removing and adding them back to the domain and also this has worked fine for about 24 hours.

These problems just started occuring approx 5 days ago from 8/27/2004

They are Winxp with office 2003 and they do not have service pack 2 installed on them.  

any sugguestions on what might be causing this?
