I have a win2k laptop which I used to connect at work. I was trying to put
it in my home LAN with win98, so I changed the network settings from the
Domain = 'us.example.com' to workgroup = myhome.
Now I want to get out of the workgroup and put it back on Domain =
'us.example.com'. I keep getting the DNS error what ever i do. It is there
as Primary DNS suffix, it is there under DNS settings for TCP/IP. But when I
put it under domain I get the error ....DNS lookup problem. unfortunately I
do not have access anymore to my work network.
How do I put it back to the original settings? Thanks in adv.

You can't without connecting the machine to the original network again and
asking your system administrator to rejoin it to the domain.

You can rejoin the original domain only when you have access to that
network especially the DNS server and a Domain Controller. If you plan on
taking that laptop back to work, change the workgroup to domain when you
get back. Otherwise, you cannot join that domain.
