Hi,

It looks like Windows XP can't see DC.

If you check Application Event log do you see any Userenv events (Event ID:
1054)?
How is DNS set up on this XP computer? Does it point to Active Directory DNS
or does it point to some other DNS server? If you try to resolve (nslookup)
or ping active directory server by name can it find (resolve) it?
If you enter \\ad.domain.com\netlogon where ad is name of your active
directory server and domain.com is name of your active directory server, do
you get access to netlogon share?
