Joining a 2003 domain

[Darrin]

"The following error occurred attempting to join the domin:
Logon failure: unknown user or bad password."

I'm trying to join a Dell Latitude D520 with XP Pro SP2 to a 2003 domain and
that is the error I'm getting. I've swapped the hard drive with a known good
hard drive that I was able to join to the domain with no success. The hard
drive out of the suspect laptop was able to join the domain in another
laptop. The laptop is getting an IP address and can get out to the web.
It's pulling everything it needs except joining the domain. All acccounts
used (4 so far) are domain admins. I checked the log and am getting a
returned 1326 error.

Any ideas?

It could be DNS issue. Post the result of nslookup here may help. Or check
this search result.

After spending the majority of today with this problem. I finally ended up
swapping the hdd into another laptop and joined the domain. Next I swapped
the hdd back to the original problem laptop and was able to unjoin and rejoin
the domain. Not sure what the hold up was but we got it working.
