Hi there. I just setup win-me and try to connect to my NT-server box. I get the message "can't find domain". I know i filled it in correctly and I also installed the clients for Networks but still no connection. Can anyone please advise...
P.s. I'musing Vmware for your information for multiple OS

to connect to NT server You need:
1-client for microsoft
2-add the correct protocol for LAN "netbeui".
3-cabling if PC to PC with no hubs use cross cable if hubs are present use straight cable that is if you using 10BT.

I'm sure it is configuration problem.
I hope this is will solve the problem.

of course you still have to add Win_ME PC to the server first using admin password in server manager then go to win_ME to Join the domain

Rejoin the computer to the domain and check if all the protocols (TCP/IP or NETBeui or whatever you use) is present on both the server and workstation.

If you use TCP/IP, see if it's getting an IP address from your server (or see if it's IP, subnet mask, gateway settings are correct).

You can also add a line to your lmhosts file on the workstation and point it to the PDC (assuming you dont have WINS/DHCP installed).
