I'd know on my office's domain. Something can only be registered once. After that, unless I delete and recreate it can't reregister as the same name, and a new name requires me to set up the server to expect the connection, unless the connection is external to the network i.e via a VPN (assumes the user has VPN access rights).

You might still be able to logon to the PC by making sure the logon Options are selected enabling you to select the login user, password and domain.

In short it's hand in cap time to the IT admin, and hope that home use fo the lappy is something that is allowed by the IT policy (might defeat having a lappy if its not).
