We have a domain in our office ( domain.com )
We have 3 windows XP workstations members of the domain where the
domain controller is a windows 2003 server

Now I installed a server 2003 operating system on a new workstation
and want it to be a member server
I'm trying to change from workgroup to domain but it does not let me
I created a user that is in Administrators group on the member server
machine

I also created an account for it in the domain server in the server
computers section
I tried the "http://domainserver/connectcomputer"; wizard but it did
not work

I also tried to computer name >> change but it does not work

what em I doing wrong ?

Which username and password should I use when I'm trying to join a
domain with a member server ?
