same name on the network.

I have a computer that was our Printing box which we ghosted by way of the
RAID controller that was in a RAID 1 config.
My boss then took that machine and while the original box was active on the
network turned it on, logged it onto the domain and changed its name.
So we had a box called STAMPRINT, then another one with the same name. He
changed it to ......-2
Now I cannot log onto either machine. I can locally but not onto the domain.
How can I fix this?
The error message says the computer account does not exist or it cannot
contact the domain controller. I recreated the account on the DC but no good.

cheers

Remove it from domain and add it into the domain again.
