I have a windows XP system in the network domain running on windows 2000 server. If I restart the Windows XP system, every time I have to login as administrator for joining to a workgroup and then rejoin to the domain again. Otherwise it will not connect to the domain. I have to do this for each and every shutdown or restart. Only one system in this network is having a problem like this.

do you always have it logged in under the same user? create a new user and try. if doesn't help, try to also reinstall the system completely
