Unable to Join the Domain

[AGA]

We have a 6 Server
1) DNS, DHCP WINDOWS 2000
2) MAIL EXCHANGE 2000
3) APPLICATION WINDOWS 2000
4) WINDOWS 2000 SQL 2000
5) LINUX
6) WINDOWS 2000 Nortons Antivirus Server

All the above server are on a same IP segment.

I am unable to join on to a Windows 2000 AD domian from Windows 2000 pro Sp 4. I did manage to join the domain using IBM LAPTOP Windows XP Pro. With the Destop using Windows 2000 Pro I was getting the DNS error so I did put in the DNS IP address on network card properties but still I could not join the domain. I connected the same computer in a totally different network and I joined the domain straight away. What else could be the issue.

What is the error that you get?

Do you get prompt for a login password when you try to join the domain?

Check if you get an ip assigned when your on that workstation. By your post it seem that you are using subnet. Did you verify if you have any free address i have seen this once trying to get a new workstation to the domain and i coudnt cause the computer didnt had any IP assigned and the DHCP was full i had to manually remove some of the IP that wherent used.
