Domain or Workgroup
Posted by Brendon Rogers on July 31st, 2003


No. When you disjoin from the domain to join the workgroup your trust
relationship with the domain is broken.

However, there is a very easy way to make this work for you:
Simply create a user account on each member of the workgroup; give this
account the appropriate rights and group membership. Name the account the
same as your domain account and give it the same password.

So now, when logged into your domain PC with your domain account, when you
attempt to connect to a workgroup member your domain credentials are passed
to the workgroup member which matches them up with the user account info in
its local SAM.
