Is there a way to have a laptop with XP-Pro on it be a
member of multiple domains and just be able to choose
whice domain to log onto depending on which client site
that I'm at instead of staying in the workgroup?
 
Hi Kenny,

Unfortunately no. A workstation (or server for that matter) can only be a
member of a single domain. Your best bet would be to ensure that each site
has a username and password created for you that matches what you use on
the laptop. This will allow you to connect to resources on the domain by
virtue of the matching credentials (this is called passthrough
authentication).

Of course you can

get MultiNetwork Manager from www.globesoft.com
this product is just perfect when connecting to different
networks you just select which one at boot time and
everything is set up.... you can even maintain your desktop
when connecting at different domains
