Re: connect XP pro to domain

Hi,

The Server01 has 1 NIC card so I have connected that to port 2 on the
switch and I have also connected the wireless router using ethernet to the
uplink port for the switch and then plugged my 2 XP pro computers to the
switch using the available ports.

Here you have probably started to introduce a NAT problem.
Are you sure you want the server and the XP machine on different networks?
The dhcp request will not travel through the router. Make sure you
understand ip-netwoking and routing.

1st connect everything to the LAN ports, don't use the WAN port. That way
you will have created ONE network.
Make sure the server has an IP numer which is NOT provides by the DHCP
server to another machine.

I went through to system properties-change- join to domain- entered domain
name- then a box came up whereby I had to enter a username and password
and I entered the user details I had created on Server01 but I keep
getting wrong username or bad password.

First make sure you have a correct ip connection. Make sure a simple ping
command works. After that you can look at the next level.
