here is the situation:
I made a rookie mistake and accident changed my work comp from a domain computer to a workgroup comp. I wa snot able to log in locally since i did not have a username or password. I used boot disk tool to reset the local admin password.
Here is my question: Since i am not the admin of the domain (work it dept is), what will they need to do in order to fix my issue. How is the computer fixed? Do they need physical access to the comp or could they remote in based on the ip address the dhcp server assigns when i log in to the local via admin account? Is my account profile still sitting some where and can be retireved when the domain is switch back?
Please educate me as i am not the best with network administration (obviously)

They will need to login as a local administrator to the computer. Once in they will go into Control Panel/System/Computer Name and click the "Change" button. Once there they type the domain name and will be asked to enter a domain administer username and password. Your computer will then need to be rebooted and you will be on the domain once again.
In most networks the account is stored on the domain controller so your account is "revolving" meaning that you can access it from any computer on the network and it will remain the same. However, depending on how your network is setup, your account may have just been local and nothing stored on the server except your username/pass.
