Hi,
I have a laptop that I periodically use in a different office with a different domain. I need to connect to that network and access network shares and printers when I'm there, but I don't want to have to create a whole other user account and change my home office network domain settings either. Is there a way to create two domain configurations, so that I can access both my home office network and my satelite office network settings from within the same user account.

Thanks.
 
Shortly, no, there isn't any simple solution to this. If you change the
domain, then you have to rejoin the other.

One solution would be to establish a trust relationship between the two
domains. Then you are going to be authenticated in domain B based on your
domain A credentials.

Have you tried Netswitcher?
