error when logging onto NT domain

[hhendrix]

We have users who are using NT 4.0. When logging onto the domain, they receive the error: "Operating system was not able to create a temporary profile directory. Please contact your Network Administrator (112))." Logged onto the workgroup first and created everything, but it still does not work. Any suggestions?

The user's profile is corrupted or the local Ntuser.dat, Ntuser.man or the roaming copy of Ntuser.dat is corrupted.

Here's a link to a Microsoft article on it: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q146050

This is happening on 3 different machines. Just found that out. Should I delete the dat file and try again????
The link didn't work. All I got was a blank page...

No, you need to read the article, http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q146050

Try the link again.

If it does not work go to Microsoft's web site and search for Q146050.

k...tried everything in the article and now I receive error "Cannot load locally stored profile. New local profile will be created (1017)." After I hit OK on that one, I receive the one from before (the 112). These things just do not want to allow these users to use them...

I am not sure what to do. I did a lot of research and came up with very little. The code 112 is usually a disk full error. How much free disk space is available? Maybe someone else has an idea what else to try.

Apparently the OS was installed wrong. I finally gave up and reinstalled and everything works fine now. Thanks so much for your help!
