Creating a domain in Server 2003 in a Virtual Machine

by jlexster . Updated 18 years, 6 months ago

I am trying to study for my MCSE exam and recently discovered Virtual Machines. I installed Server 2003 on one VM and XP on another since I didn’t want to add my real computer to the domain. The problem is, when I try to add a user name on the domain as a local admin on the XP machine, it will display the name, so it is obviously able to see the domain. But, I get an error saying the domain may not exist or it can not be contacted. Anyone have any ideas? I’ve turned off Windows Firewall on both VMs and made it so the user name is an administrator, so there shouldn’t be any restrications.
