| | Vista-W2K Domain Join Trashes Networking Hi, I manage a small domain, one W2K Server Domain Controller and 10 XP-Pro clients. We just added a Vista laptop, and I tried to join it to the domain via both the wizard as well as direct setting changes. After joining the domain and restartting, all network conectivity is lost and I see messages saying the services and dependency groups failed to start. I also get 'access denied' messages when I try to open vista's firewall. Only fix is to restore back to before joining the domain. I've searched the KB and TechNet, and nothing! As of this moment, I can only run the laptop setting the workgroup name the same as the domain, but of course don't have any of my domain functionality. Any advise? |
