Just curious, will vista support NT Domains? Will a Vista PC be able to join
an NT domain?

TIA.

With the default settings Vista won't authenticate to a NT domain. You have
to lower the authentication level Vista uses.

"Run as administrator" secpol.msc

Under Local Policies > Security Options

Change the value of "Network Security: LAN Manager authentication level"
from "NTVLM2 responses only" to "LM and NTLM - use NTLMv2 session security
if negotiated"

Note that I last tried this with build 5384. Newer builds may need a
different fix.

This does not work with Vista RTM :-( Any ideas?

Actually it does work, but you have to use the wizard (System Properties |
Computer Name | Network ID...).
