Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsnt.domain (More info?)
I have a Windows NT 4.0 SP5 server, not a domain
controller, that I'm trying to join our Win2K domain. I
right click on Network Neighborhood, choose the
Identification Tab, click change and type in the domain
name without the .com at the end. I get "Unable to
connect to the domain controller for this domain. Have
your administrator check your computer account on the
domain." I have already created a computer account on the
domain. If I enter the domain name with the .com at the
end I get "The domain controller for this domain cannot be
located." I can ping the domain controller by IP and by
name. TCP/IP, DNS, & WINS settings are correct. The only
thing not configured is default gateway, but all the
servers are on the same subnet. Any suggestions?
