Yesterday something reminded me of a stupid problem I had last year. I am one of the administrators for a computer lab at school and during our big yearly re-image and update of he computers I noticed I was having problems logging in after putting them on the school's domain.
The problem was that after adding the computer to the domain on the Mac side, once I tried it to add it on Windows side the "link" would be messed up and since we were using a domain account to log in, we were stuck with just the local account.
The solution/workaround was to remove the workstation from the domain (both at the workstation and the Active directory Users and Computers list) and then add it on the Windows side FIRST and then on the Mac side.
I don't know if an update or the IT people have solved this little issue yet but I document it just in case anyone comes across something similar.
