Has anyone seen this...I create the user and computers with the wizards in
Server Management, but when I then go to the workstation and attempt to
connect the workstations to the domain via //server/connectcomputer, it takes
me to the log in screen and I enter the user name and password and then I get
the following pop up window...

The list of users and computers could not be found on the server. Make sure
that the Small Business Server network adapters are configured correctly.

I go back to the server and all the names are spelled correctly, any ideas.

Make sure that the computers look at the IP adress of your SBS server as DNS server. If you're not sure, please post the output of the command ipconfig /all form a workstation and from the server.
