recently we got some laptops (fujitsu-siemens with winxp pro loaded
with sp2) and when we try to join domain it fails saying it doesn't
find the domain; the only change that we made on the server (long back)

changing the IP series; we've got 20-25 users; DC is with AD,DNS/DHCP
etc.. what could be the reason?! existing workstations are ok; help
greatly appreciated
thanks
 
When entering the Domain name are you using the Netbios name (MYDOMAIN)
name or the fqdn (mydomain.local)

I've found sometimes when trying to add new workstations to a domain
they can't find the domain if the fqdn is used (probably a DNS issue)

hth.
