Possible DNS problem with user ID?

I'm moving computers from a server in a workgroup to a new server in a
recently created domain. 28 out of the 30 computers have been joined to the
new domain without any problem. I upgraded one of the users (already
successfully joined to the domain) to a new computer. To do so, I used Norton
Ghost to copy the old hard drive, ran a repair using Windows XP Pro w/ SP1,
updated to SP2, and downloaded all the updates from Microsoft Update. I can
no longer connect the user of the new computer to the workgroup server unless
I do so by using the IP address of the workgroup server.

If I ping the workgroup server by name, I get the error “Ping request could
not find host <server name>. Please check the name and try again.” If I ping
the server by IP address, I get responses every time. I’ve tried using
“ipconfig /flushdns” and then using “ipconfig /release”, but I get the error
“The operation failed as no adapter is in the state permissible for this
operation. If I try to run “ipconfig /renew” I get the same error message.

It seems like it has to be machine related because I can sign onto other
computers with the user’s ID and I have no problems connecting with the old
server. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Thank you!

Since you use ghost, double check the TCP/IP settings and make sure no two computers using the same IP and hostname.

Bob,

Thanks for your reply. I checked the TCP/IP settings and ran through the
troubleshooting info that you suggested. Didn't have any success.

However, I noticed when I went to another computer that the new computer I
upgraded appears under both the workgroup and the new domain in Windows
Explorer. Is it possible that one of the servers, either the workgroup server
or the domain server, has not let go of a connection from the old computer
that was replaced? I'm going to reboot both servers when no one is connected
to them and see if that solves the problem.

If you have any thoughts on this, please let me know.

Thanks!
