Domain accounts
I can't set up a domain account with VIsta 5728.
I have tried wired and wireless. I have removed my pc from the domain and readded it and purged off old accounts from the pc and tried to add them back again. I know that I'm not the only one having this issue. Has anyone come out with a work around?

Domain accounts
Ok I have found the problem and it dates back to Win XP. The OS has locked
the account. It can be fixed by editing a key in the registry. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\Cu rrentVersion\ProfileList. Under here you will find some long numbers these are known as the Users SID, if there are a lot of people logged onto the machine there will be a long list in here.(Hopefully not). Click on 1 of them and check the details in the right hand pane and it should give you a profilePath. If you have blown away you profle, delete the key.
