I have a XP Home that I am having trouble attaching to an office network.
The Workgroup name is the same as the office workgroup. And I do have
access to the outside Internet. Just whenever I try to open the 'Domain'
in Network Neighborhood, it tells me the Domain is not accessible.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks in advance..

XP Home is not designed to join a domain. In order to do so,
an upgrade to XP Pro will be required.

Which Edition is Right for You?

XP Home can not connect to a domain.

Assuming your VPN'd into your work network, you can still connect to
resources from your work network however.
