Well, I finally got these computers to be connected to the SBS 2003 domain
name, I did it the old fashion way, went the the system properties instead
of using the "wizard". Now the only problem is:
Now I log into the workstation using the network user name and domain name.
When I first did that, it created a new profile. So then I logged in as
administrator of both the workstation and the network user name so that I
could copy the profile of the original user name to the profile of the new
user name with the SBS 2003 domain. Before we had no network. I go into
System --> user profiles --> select a profile --> click on "copy to" -->
click on "permitted to use" --> but it will not find the SBS2003 domain
name, only the local user domain name.
Got any ideas?
Here is the IPCONFIG /ALL from the server:
