Windows XP Multi-domain membership

Can Windows XP Pro support more than one domain membership? How do you set it
up so that you have more than just "local machine" and one domain option to
select from when logging in?
I have machines that are a member of a Windows NT4.0 domain now and need
them to also access a Windows 2003 Small Business Server domain.

The only way to have more than one domain show up in the login box is if you
have multiple domains with trusts established between them. Robert has
given you advice on how to access outside-domain resources without this,
however.
