Server issues
- Thread starter seanos
- Start date
If its a new 2k client you should have no problem.
Start of by creating a user account on the nt server. Then from the client log on as a local administrator, then start, setting, network and dial-up connections, advanced, network-id and follow the wizard or properties and do it manually,
You will need to use the user account previously created and create a computer account. Finally make that network user a member of the local administrators by right click my computer select manage, local users and groups, groups select administrators, add drop down the look in and select the domain, then choose the user account previously created.
If it is not a new client. You have two choices either make it a member of a workgroup with the same domain name. Or copy the user profile to the network. If you don't do this you will not be able to see the old data, apps and desktop, although it will be available if you log on locally. If you need further help let me know.

Nope - nothing new. Just join the domain, and off ya go. I've got a Win2K machine running on an NT server network, and it didn't take any extra networking. -= Beer is food! Is it suppertime? =-
