Default Xp Home and networking


I am running an xphome computer on my network. Is there a
way to join the xphome computer to the domain on my
network? or can it access any of the drives on my
network? How can the user login to the network? I have a
Windows2000 server authentication users and running active
directory.

Most appreciative,

No, you need to upgrade to XP Pro.

Fabio,

Sorry to say but XP Home Edition cannot connect to a
network via a domain. In terms of network access, XP
Home-Edition can connect via Workgroups e.t.c, So you may
want to consider that in you solution.
