Hi

I activiated the logon using smartcard option on my DC, and now cant get
onto my server. Its the only domain controller on the network. It is
running Windows2k3.

Is there a way to reverse this so that I can log back into my server

Thanks

When I experimented with smartcards, I remember setting up a policy to
enforce smartcard logon on domain controllers. However, you could still
logon as administrator on the member server/workstation. If your case is
similar, logon the workstation, install adminpak.msi and Group Policy
management console and set up your policy to allow logon without smartcard.
