Wireless log on to 2003 domain failure

Dec 01, 2006 1 Replies

Several users on my network have laptops with wireless NICs and connect to the Windwos 2003 domain when in the office.



Recently I have encountered a serious issue: After using their laptops off the LAN, the users are then unable to log onto the LAN\\Domain when they return. I have to log on locally, remove them from the domain and then add them again. Wireless devices that never leave the LAN have no problem logging onto the domain.



There are no problems with wireless signal strength - we are well covered.


We use roaming profiles, users have remote access over terminal server and we run 3 servers - server1: Domain Controller, DNS and Exchange server2: 2nd Domain Controller, DNS, File and Print Server server3: Windows Terminal Server



Any Ideas?

You sure the users have not configured the machine to connect to some other LAN using a Workgroup name. They set the machine back to Domain name, when they comeback to work, before they come back, which they cannot connect to the domain anymore without a Domain Admin doing it for them.
