Tried all tyhe stuff ...
I just realized that I could access the stuff from the CS dept as
\\machine.name.sdfdf.adsd\\username ...
But its unaccessible from my own domain ... ie. engr
its also unaccessible as \\netbiosname\ even tho the m/c appears in the network neighborhood of other machines ....
It says this "The account is not authirized to login from this station"
It works fine when I boot it in Windows too ...

ideas?
