Can you give us some history on this member server - was it clean installed,
or upgraded? Has SBS media (2k or 2k3) been used anywhere else on your
network, ever, besides on the present SBS server?
Is this member server joined to the SBS domain? If so, can you elaborate on
the steps you took to join it?

By add a computer, exactly what do you mean? Are you adding an account via
the SBS server management console, using the Add Computer Wizard, or
<something else>. If using Add Computer Wizard - what user account are you
logged onto the server with, and what are it's security group memberships?

Please post the output of 'ipconfig /all' run from the SBS server, a
workstation, and optionally your member server.

You should post all of the errors - you can use the copy function once you
open the error, and past them into a reply.
