I am wondering if there are any issues with simply changing the Workgroup/Domain of an SQL server on Win2k server. It is currently in a workgroup. We want to add it to a domain.

As far as actually joining a domain, there should be no issues. However, there will be issues with security. Because you will be making the server a domain resource, it will now be subject to domain security. You will need to reconfigure shares and permissions accordingly.
