Title: SME domain not found when trying to join
Post by: Gary on August 27, 2003, 01:48:07 PM

I've set up countless SME domains and joined PC's to them no problem, however I'm in the middle of migrating from a Win2k domain to SME myself but when trying to join it from any machine it says it can't find a domain controller for that domain?
It's in server gateway mode, with DC ticked under workgroup config and is available on the network and working fine apart from this problem.

Any thoughts?

Good morning,

Just got done posting informatin about joining the SME domain. It should work the same in a server/gateway mode.

It also has references to other threads.

Later

Wally

Thanks - just sorted out the problem - idiot that I am. Didn't realise the Workgroup name had to be the same as the SME domain name. Reason it wasn't the same is because of my exisiting Win2k domain. Well changed it and it's OK!
