Re: Attaching XP Home computer to SBS 2003

XP Home is not a networkable product. It cannot join the domain no matter
how hard you try. You will need ti upgrade to XP Pro if you want the box to
be a part of the SBS domain.

I just got a call from a friend whose office is installing SBS2003. They
are being told by their tech guy that they are required to have XP Pro to
attach, but I am sure we had Home machines attached here at some point (not
now). How do you attach a Home machine?
