I ‘m having a difficult time getting it eliminated. I wonder in case you have more suitable ideas (free application) on just how to have it executed.

If posters are connected to a domain, they should talk to their network administrator and not rely on sites like this.

The machine needs to be ghosted BEFORE it joins a domain. If you have not done this, then disjoin, delete computer name from active directory, then rejoin. Problem solved.

You’ll have to change the network settings as described above to fix the problem.

It’s coming off of a machine I just ghosted (and yes, I’ve changed the name) I’ve even set the name to a misc string of characters, and still, this error pops up. I don’t know why this is happening yet. Any advice would be appreciated.
