Hi, i was having problem to have some of the win2k workstation in my office to join back to my current domains, when I am trying to do so, it pops out an error saying that some credential criticals or the domain could not be found. It was weird coz others win2ks and win 9x or XP are joined in my domain happily. I did thought of cabling problem but i still can ping that domain server... so does anyone have any ideas on this???

Are you using the same user account on all the machines to join the domain?

Make sure the user account you are using has the proper privleges to join PCs to the domain.

Hope this helps!

Yup, the account I use to join the domain has the privileges of admin...

if the comps were previous members of the domain, you may have to join a workgroup first, reboot, then rejoin the domain using an domain admin account.
