Login to Win 2K server, domain.com or domain??

by ed2967 . Updated 21 years, 8 months ago

I’m a student of Win 2K & 2K3.
After re recent move from a Win NT4 server to a Win 2K server(AD), My Win NT & Win 98 PCs wouldn’t correctly login to the same domain name(Domain.com)format as in NT4(without a failure to find domain error). The Win 2K & XP Pro PCs logged in perfectly. I have noticed that Win 2K server is really slow & sluggish. Browsing the network from the server could take a minute to display computers. To get the NT4 WS & Win98 PCs logged in, I finally found that I had to use the Domain alone (no .Com).

My question is, should all workstations in the domain login using Domain or Domain.com? Or is there another issue here?
Thanks
