Vista home on domain from 2003 server

[Hans Bouwman]

Hi,
i have a problem.
I have a network with a 2003 server and a internet server (winroute).
After installing my new notebook from siemens, internet works fine.
I have a wired lan.
When i try to log into my 2003 domain server, the notebook always tells me
that the password is incorrect.
In dutch : AANMELDEN MISLUKT.
U KAN NIET WORDEN AANGEMELD.

Vista Home cannot join a domain although, like XP Home before it, it can
use domain resources. Did you create a user account and password on the
server that matches the one on your notebook? If not, you need to do
this. Since Vista Home will not cache the credentials, you'll need to
enter your user name and password each time you want to connect to the
domain.

Accout is the same on both machines.
I created an account with same name and password on both vista machine and
2003 server.
What else could be wrong ?

Hans, unfortunately (for me!) I can't read Dutch so I am just guessing
at the exact meaning of your error message. I'd double-check your typing
of both the user account name and the password on both machines. I'd
also check the firewall settings on the laptop to make sure the LAN
connection is trusted. If that doesn't help, post in one of the MS
newsgroups for the Dutch language. Here's a list of all the MS public
newsgroups so you can find the *nl groups for Vista:

Also, don't forget that for domains, you should give your username as
DOMAINNAME\USERNAME...
