Joining a Domain

T

Tom

When attempting to join a domain (Windows Server 2003) the
following error occurs:

"Your comupter could not be joined to the domain because
the following error has occurred: Access denied"

I am using an administrator account to join the domain. I
have tried KB30095 without success

It is not enough to simply be an administrator on the box. You need a domain
account with sufficient privelages in order to add or remove machines from
the domain.

Are you using an Admin account of the workstation or an Admin account of the
domain? You need to use a Domain Admin account that would be specified on
the 2003 server.
