Windows NT cannot join W2k domain
Posted by leslie on October 8th, 2003


I have a w2k domain. All of my w2k and xp workstations
can log on to the domain. I was unable to join the
domain using a winnt 4.0 workstation/win98 win95. I
created a computer account for the winnt 4.0 workstation
and then it did join the domain. I reboot. After I
rebooted, I have to the option to select the domain, but
when I try to logon, it tells me that the domain
controller cannot be contacted.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

How have you set your WINS servers up? Are your NT machines and your DC
that contains the PDC Emulator FSMO role set to use WINS?
