I have two winxp machines that I made members of the domain. Now when I log
in, I get "the system cannot log you on because the domain MCHSERVER2 is not
avail."

An yet I can login locally and attach to the domain computer! I can also
move the computers to "workgroup" and login and make them members of the
domain again. However, when I try to log to the domain I get these errors.

In computer "event" I have event 1054 windows could not obtain the domain
controller name for your computer....


PLEASE help!!!

thanks,
 
It sounds like a DNS problem. You need to make sure your domain has
registered in DNS. Make sure the domain controller and the client
workstations both point to the same DNS server. If they do not, point them
to the same Dynamic DNS server and reboot them.

Let use know how you fair from there.
