Question:
We have some Windows Pro 7 OSs and we have been playing with them, and seeing how things are compatible with the software we use. Well, the only issue we have been having is adding users to the PC.
I add the PC to the domain without a problem. I supply my creditials and I can connect to our domain. I log back in to the PC under the local admin on the PC and try to add users that will be using the PC. I attempt to add our security group "PCADMINS" and I get "The trust relationship between the workstation and the primary domain failed". I then just try my username and it gave the same error.
I logoff as the local admin, login using my username and domain and try to add my username again. Still, I get the same error. I try the group "PCADMINS" get the same error. Mind you, the level I am granting to the user is Administrator.
I logoff my username and domain. I log back in as local admin on the PC and manage user accounts and try to add my username and this time it works! So, I try adding another user, it fails with that same error. So, I logoff as local admin login as that user that I want to add. Log off and log back in as local admin and I am able to add that user.
So, it seems that if I login on the PC once as the user I want to add I am able to then add them as a user. If I dont login as that user first I get "The trust relationship between the primary domain failed". Also, at some points I am able to add the security group PCADMINS to the device.
Where is my error? Is it my Active Directory? Is it something with Windows 7?
I have done the whole disjoin/rejoin and I still get the same results.
Any ideas
