Cannot join domain, please help

M

Mark

I am running a Windows 2000 network/domain. I have a
couple of PC's (windows 2000 pro) that are unable to join
the domain. The have the correct IP settings for IP,
subnet, gateway, dns. I can ping all 4 DC's with these
computers. I can map network drives to the DC's. However
when I try to join the domain I get the following error:

The following error occurred attempting to join the
domain "domain.com";
The remote computer is not available.

Anyone know why this is happening and better yet a fix???

Thanks in advance!

Mark,

try the netbios name "domain" without .com.
do this workstations have a firewall running, like zonealarm?
set the netbios option to default.
....

cheers
chris
