    Running a Windows 2000 (or might be 2003?) server based network with
    XP on clients.

    Changed time by a few minutes on a client - now can't logon as time
    is different from that of server

    How to fix?

    Log as the local admin (choose the machine name from the list you see when
    you press "options" on the login box), set the time back a few minutes, log
    out, log in to the domain.

    Thanks, that looks to be the problem. For a friend with a business
    actually.

    In the end, the solution was blindingly simple:

    1. Check the time on the server

    2. Enter the BIOS on the problem PC and change its time to close to
    that of the server (within 5 seconds, but probably could have been up
    to at least 5 minutes different)

    => client PC now can login to domain

    thanx for all the suggestions

    In future, Do the following on the client PC. This will configure the
    time on the client PC to match the Servers time.

    Start - Run - Type - \\servername /set
