Completely locked out of Vista... | |

I figured it wouldn't take long before my Dad would hit some troubles (see my previous post about my Dad installing Vista). And boy, did he hit some troubles. Just to give some background, my Dad is the Cheif IT Officer of a Pharmaceutical company. He has sites across the U.S. and a site in the U.K. They have implemented a very sophisticated cross-site network. Anyways back to my Dad using Vista. Today, at work he had some issues with Outlook communicating through his ISA so he went into his Network Center in Vista and changed his IP from DHCP to static and input all the information he needed to belong to a different network. He had previously logged in, via a Windows Server 2003 Domain Controller, to a network using DHCP. So he rebooted and when his Laptop came back up, it refused to let him log in. No cached profile. Nothing. | ||

Bummer - well, there is an update to ISA 2004 for Outlook access through ISA when the sever/client are configured to use RPC over HTTP(S) - can he check to see if that has been applied.
It's pretty easy to get around a locked local machine - he can use som pretty simple utils and a USB floppy and call up the the snap-in to add a defaultuser that at next reboot, will be assigned a default password in the context of the admins group. He can then re-join the box, reboot, log as a domain admin, reveal all hidden files/system files and copy his old profile into his new domain user account profile - agreeing to copy overwrite all files. **Be sure to diable hardware DEP in the BIOS first. |
