Vista - Vista and the Domain issues

Hi,
I've got a win2k3 DC. The Lan has a couple of win2k servers but the rest
are all win2k3.
I have no problems joining the domain w/ XP workstations and laptops but
recently purchased a Dell XPS M1330 with Vista Biz on it.

I finally did get it to join the domain but I still cannot gain access to
the LAN. It seems I only have access to what is in AD. When I look at the
Status in Network and Sharing Center I see the Domain and the Access is
listed as "local and internet" and the connection is listed as "Local Area
Connection".
View Status gives me this information:
IPv4 Connectivity - Internet
IPv6 Connectivity - Limited
Media State - enabled

Can anyone advise? I'm most appreciative of any help offered. Thanks.

Jeff

If you disable IPv6, can you access the LAN?
