Topic: Adding a Win 2003 Server to a SME Server V6.01-01 Domain

Having an issue adding a Win 2003 Server to my SME server V6.01-01 Domain.

During the Win 03 install everything works great and I am able to join the Win server to the domain with no error.

When I try to log on to the Win 03 server with a account that is in the domain, but not a local account to the NT server I get an error saying that the domain is not availiable.

I am able to login to the domain with all my other computers so it is not an SME domain issue.

If I create local accounts on the Win 03 server that are the same username and password as those on the SME domain I am able to connect to shares from the SME server, but I cannot connect to any shares on the 2003 server from any workstation no matter if the account is a domain account or an admin account.

I get an error saying there is no domain trust relationship even thought the windows server is just a member server in the SME domain.

It does not appear to be a WINS problem because I can resolve netbios names. It use to work with a Win 2k server set up the same way but not with a win 03 server.

Thanks for any ideas !!!

To login to the domain from a WinXP machine you will need to apply a registry change which I suspect might be also required for the Win2K3 server?

I had the same thought so I tried to run the XP reg update on it but it errors out. I didnt know if someone had another version for 2003 server or if there was anything that had to be changed in the policy and security settings on the M$ 03 server ?
