Win XP pro, LOGON to Win NT4 Domain

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsnt.setup (More info?)

To all;

My customer wants to upgrade their systems

(Win 98 work stations, and Win NT 4 Server PDC).

so I've started with the first work station, and installed

Windows XP.

Problem;

No matter what I try, I cannot LOGON to the

Win NT 4 Domain Server.

I understand about the SID of workstations, so

I created a new account on the Server(using the NT

wizard)for the new work station using all the same Groups

and Profiles as the Win98 users.

I understand that Win XP uses DNS where Win NT

uses NETBIOS so I set up the Win XP work station for

NETBIOS over TCPIP.

On the Win XP work station I right click MyComputer,

select PROPERTIES, Computer Name, then click

Network ID to "join the Domain and create a local

user account". After answering all the question, I get

"The security database on the server does not have a

computer account for this work station trust relationship".

I've done this many time, changing the Computer

Name on the Work Station, and setting a new account

on the server but can't seem to get it to work.



Anybody have experience with this?

PS: Work Groups appear to work some what but that not

what they want.

Not sure if this is the same problem I was having getting an XP Pro machine onto an NT 4 network but try going to the local security policy of the XP Pro PC, in the Local Policy - security options and find "Domain member: Digitally encrypt, or sign secure channel data(always)" - if this is set to enabled, disable it then should be able to get onto the NT domain

Thank you Alf but the thing still does not work.
There must be something in the server where
the USERID is check against a list for "TRUSTED
RELATIONSHIP", but I will be damned if I can
find it.

This article may help. Also try without first creating the computer account
on Windows NT server.

Thank you both...
My problem was simple, I forgot to add the new
USERID to the GROUP that the company uses.
All is well, now I can get on with the upgrades.
