How do I get the XP machine to automatically log on to the server? Where do I put the Domain on XP? I have a stand alone server connected to a Router/Hub and I am trying to add a Dell Laptop to the Domain. I have a drive mapped that doesn't map until I double click it and use the user login and password.

First put the machine on the domain:
It's the same as 2k.. Props of My Computer | Computer Name | Change | you got it..
On the XP Machine: (auto Logon)
[Start] [Run] [Regedit]
Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Modify/Create the Value Data Type(s) and Value Name(s) as detailed below.
Data Type: String Value // Value Name: DefaultUserName
Setting for Value Data: [Enter the account name to be automatically logged on]
Data Type: String Value // Value Name: DefaultPassword
Setting for Value Data: [Enter the account password]
Data Type: String Value // Value Name: AutoAdminLogon
