Error 2200
This workstation is already logged on to the local-area network.

Explanation: This message should occur only on a down-level computer. Any action to correct the problem should be performed on that computer. A user is already logged on at this workstation.

Action: To see who is currently logged on at the workstation, type:

NET CONFIG WORKSTATION

Error 2201
The workstation is not logged on to the local-area network.

Error 2202
The user name or group name parameter is invalid.

Error 2204
The logon processor did not add the message alias.

Explanation: This message should occur only on a down-level computer. Any action to correct the problem should be performed on that computer. Your user name was not added as a new message alias for one of the following reasons:


 * The Messenger service is not started on your workstation.
 * Your user name and your workstation's computer name are the same, and your workstation's computer name is already a message alias.
 * Your user name is in use as a message alias on another computer on the network. In this case, you cannot receive messages at the local workstation using this name.

Action: Start the Messenger service on your workstation if it is not already started. Then use the NET NAME command to add your user name as a message alias. If your user name is being used as a message alias on another computer, delete the alias on that computer. Then use the NET NAME command to add your user name as a message alias on this computer.

Error 2205
The logon processor did not add the message alias.

Explanation: This message should occur only on a down-level computer. Any action to correct the problem should be performed on that computer. Your user name is already established as a message alias. Either your user name and computer name are the same, or your user name is in use as a message alias on another computer on the network. If your user name is being used as a message alias on another computer, you cannot receive messages at the local workstation using this name.

Action: If your user name is being used as a message alias on another computer, delete the alias on that computer. Then log on again at this computer.

Error 2206
The logoff processor did not delete the message alias.

Explanation: This message should occur only on a down-level computer. Any action to correct the problem should be performed on that computer. The message alias corresponding to your user name was not deleted. Either your user name is the same as the computer name, or your user name is being used as a message alias on some other network computer.

Action: No action is needed.

Error 2207
The logoff processor did not delete the message alias.

Explanation: This message should occur only on a down-level computer. Any action to correct the problem should be performed on that computer. The message alias corresponding to your user name was not deleted because your user name is the same as the computer name.

Action: No action is needed.

Error 2208

Error 2216
There is already a logon domain for this computer.

Explanation: This message should occur only on a down-level computer. Any action to correct the problem should be performed on that computer. This workstation already has a logon domain established.
