Hi,
I recently changed the configuration of my server to from the member of
a domain to a member of another work group.
I was prompted for a restart, now the issue is that the only login ID i
know is that of a login that belongs to a domain and i do not have the
administrator password or any other password.
Is there any way i can change the computer back to the domain without
knowing the admin password.
I know the domain to which the computer used to belown.
Thanks in advance.
Mobin

This is a FAQ - you need a password reset utility to change local admin
password.

I use NTpasswd (http://home.eunet.no/~pnordahl/ntpasswd/bootdisk.html)
I even put it on my MP3 player, as the utility is often utilised
