Re: Connecting to two different domains

I left out the firewall details - my netork is a little more complicated than
I explained (I have a cable modem & dsl modem going into a TWIN WAN - which
acts a firewall and for redundancy should either go down - it also add the
signals when they are both up for great bandwidth) ... but anyway ...

I have Active Directory Set-up on my Windows 2003 home server. I set-up the
server with AD and created usernames/passords. I am able to connect from
another separate pc I have on my home network and it works fine. THe TWIN
Wan assigns the IP addresses. I have a hub off the Twin Wan where I have my
laptop, other pc, a printer and the server plugged in.

Am I thinking too hard about this? CAn I just add a new user account with
the new domain name?
SInce I already

Do you have Active Directory at home? Otherwise you cannot connect on
home.com domain. But you can choose from logon screen logon locally (on your
laptop name)

My home network has a windows 2003 server and one other client attached.
It
gets its internet feed from a cable modem to a hub on which are my laptop,
server and other pc client

Normal settings for network looks a little bit different..It should be a
firewall/router that connect the clients on internet... This router/firewall
keep you secure and also may give you the internal IP addresses (DHCP
server)

I tried setting up an alternate ip address - but
I definitely set it it incorrectly because it had disasterous results (I had
to restore my previous settings to get it to boot properly

Who assign you the IP adresses at home?

My laptop is currently configured to attach to my company's network
company.com. When I boot my XP laptop, I am prompted to log onto
company.com
username and password even when i am not in the office. I sometimes work
from home, and would now also like the ability to log onto my home network
(home.com) when I am home (yet also still be able to log onto my company
network when I am in the company office.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
