NETBIOS domain name is limited to 14 chars isn't it?.
northeastinstrumentserviceinc.local
Magneto should stop wasting his own time, flatten the box, reinstall.
nei.local sound like a reasonable AD DNS name.

try manually joining one to the domain using the name you see for a domain
name on the server logon
The truth is you cannot resolve these differences without a format and
re-install.
Also please post an IPconfig /all here from the server

Hi,
Thanks for your reply, how can I check the net bios name against AD. It
had
a different domain for the server log in box now that you mention it. How
can
I correct this? DHCP is being handles by the SBS box. I had to configure
IP
on the clients in order to get connected to the internet.
