After changing the network option from domain server to
workgroup in order to log to local net, I can't logon to
my computer.
Can anyonr help?

Without the domain controller you will not be able to use this logon.
Hopefully you have a local user you can use instead. If not, try
Administrator. The password will be whatever you set or the original
default of blank.
 
Greetings --

By changing the computer from the domain to a workgroup, you have
removed the "trust relationship" between the domain and the machine.
In doing so, you have also rendered any cached domain login
credentials as invalid. You need to be physically connected to the
domain network, you need to have administrative privileges to the
workstation, and you need to have administrative privileges on the
domain. Then you can add the machine back on to the domain, after
having first deleted the computer's old domain account (unless you've
also renamed the computer).
