Hi,

I just upgraded an iMac to Lion. I've done this for several other imacs and things went fine. Unfortunately i have 2 machines that for some reason do not let me log in at all with the local admin account. I suspect something went wrong to screw up the active directory.

The log in screen simply says network accounts are unavailable with the red indicator. Is there a way to force login the local account? I have tried safe boot as well as single user mode to change the admin password and still no dice.

I cannot log in to the local account at all.
