Joining a domain

[Guest]

I have recently added a Vista ultimate laptop to my network. When I attempt
to change the network configuration so that I can join my domain, I am
presented with the normal wizard. After filling in user name, domain,
passwords, etc., I receive a Windows error popup telling me that "The format
of the specified network name is invalid" I cannot find any reference to this
error message.

A network name can have up to 15 characters and can't include spaces.
Leaving off the .local extension sometimes does the trick.
