To create a domain, you would need to start with a server
operating system, such as WinNT 4.0 Server (may it rest in peace),
Win2K Server, or Windows Server 2003.
WinXP Pro, as a workstation operating system, is an excellent
choice for a client OS to use on the domain's workstations. WinXP
Home, however, is not designed to, nor can it truly be made to, join
a WinNT, Win2K or Win2K3 domain.
