Here is the deal. I installed a fresh copy XP pro with SP2 installed all the
apps like IIS, VB 6, VB.NET, Office 2k3, Symantec VS, then I configured the
IIS to our standards and ran our software for 3 days. THEN I joined the PC
to the domain and had a developer login and BAM, nothing within IIS works,
the services anything. So my conclusion is it must be a domain policy
thing???

Does anyone have any idea what might be conflicting with IIS once joined to
the domain? Note** We have the security settings for SP2’s firewall
disabled as not to have any problems with SMS 2k3, WUS, etc.

Any thoughts?
