dear all,
I received about 8 new computers with Windows XP pro and unfortunately they can't join the domain. i get the infamous error: "The domain controller for the specified domain either does not exist or can not be contacted". Is this a problem with XP because i reinstalled one of the machines with windows 2000 and all was perfect. I do not think it is sensible for me to do a reinstall of win 2k on all the machines, i am sure there is some magical setting i have to change on XP pro to enable them join the domain.

thanks
