D Doug Sherman [MVP] Feb 23, 2005 #4 In addition to Chuck's excellent documentation - if this is an NT 4.0 domain: 1. If you are not using WINS, you may need an lmhosts file with a PDC entry on the XP machine - see: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;180094 2. You may need to disable digital signing in local security policies on the XP machine - see: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;318266 Doug Sherman MCSE Win2k/NT4.0, MCSA, MCP+I, MVP
