Adding to a domain
Optiplex 745, Windows XP;
While adding computers to a domain, I received the message that the name given was already in use. Spoke to the admin and he suggested that I take it off the domain put it in a workgroup, restart and then put it back on the domain, which I did. Although it was accepted in the domain under the name, I can only log into the computer as a workstation. What must I do to be able to log into the domain as an administrator.
Another name is not an option.

XP is not a server. XP is not a domain controller. You can only login as a workstation because that's what XP is.
Its a workstation Client its NOT Server 2003 or Server 2008. Either way this is not a Dell issue its a Microsoft Windows
issue.
