Logging onto domain with Windows XP Pro

[jakenjod]

HI...I have a laptop that has Windows XP pro installed and when I try to log onto our domain with the network cable connected...it tells me the user name or password is not correct or the domain is not available. However if I unplug the network cable and then put my network password in (still logging into the domain) it works and then I have to reconnect the cable in order to see our network. How can I set it up so that I can plug the network cable in and log in to the domain as you normally would with a desktop PC??
Thanks!

when you reconnect and access the network, do you not ever receive any "access denied" messages when trying to open mapped network drives? because it sounds as if your local security info does not match what is on the domain (i.e. your password on the domain was changed).

No, I have full access to the domain (i.e. email, network drives, etc.) once I have plugged the network cable in. But I just can't get logged into the network with the cable plugged in.
