i ran a dcpromo. to activate active directory, After doing a reboot, it took
forever to come up, so i powered down and restarted the machine, and now it
would not take any passwords for both localpc and domain. .. . One strange
thing. in the domain box, there are options for both the domain and PC
name(this computer).
When i try to log on to the domain it says the domain is not available.
Can anyone help.
please reply to (e-mail address removed)
 
Did you join the original domain correctly?
Sounds like when you ran the DCPromo, it didn't join the domain correctly
otherwise you wouldn't have the option to logon locally or use the network.

Go to another server and check AD to see if the server is showing up in the
default Domain Controllers OU
 
Using recovery console check to see wether the kdc service
is not disabled.

Had this once before it is a thing that can occur that
this service is disabled, so set it to start up
automaticly.

hope this helps.
