Is it possible to add a PC to the domain from the domain controller, rather
than actually sitting at the workstation PC and joining it to the domain?

On my domain controller I have accidentally deleted several computers. I can
add them back at the domain controller but the PC's don't allow the user to
login because they say "the system account on the domain does not exist". I
assume this is a SID issue. But if you can't join a computer to the domain
from the domain controller itself, then why is there an option on the domain
controller to add a computer??

you can add teh computer account on the server, but you still have to add
teh computer to the domain manually.

the only difference is that by having an account on the server created, the
user does not need to have admin priviliges to add it to the domain.
