We are currently migrating from Novell 4 with limited NDS to W2K ADS. The one peculiar issue so far is that of Client Access (CA) on W2K Pro systems when added to Domain.

When these systems are running in the workgroup, CA runs without issue. When added to the domain, CA fails. I have tried installing CA both prior to and after joining the domain, both to no avail.

Does anyone have experience in running CA inside domains?

I've seen this when the client access is set to do an automatic login verification. It's attempting to pass the domain username/password versus the as400. In a workgroup environment, this would be fine, but in domain their can be issues such as the login information for the domain does not match that of the as400. Try turning this feature off for one of your migrated PCs and it should prompt you for login information to the as400 system. It would help to know what type of connection your are making such as 5250 and what version the software is at on the PC.

Yes, it is the 5250 emulation.

I will have to check on the software version.

Thankyou, points me in the right direction.
