I have a problem that I am ghosting a lab of computers and am using
sysprep to supply information to the mini setup. Once the setup has
completed, the system reboots and comes up in windows 2000. At this
point the system is joined to the domain. The system reboots again to
finish setup and when it comes up the second time it is no longer
joined to the domain.

When it come up the second time the name of the domain is specified
under the workgroup box instead of the domain box.

Can anyone please help?

Thanks in advance

Try this make a fresh image from cd do not join it to the domain then
sysprep it and during the sysprep process have it join the domain see if
that works. I am guessing that this image you are useing has already been
joined to the domain and you re syspreped it.
