Error joining a domain

Hi, we have just purchased a Windows 2003 Server and are trying to join it to
our Windows 2000 domain, when asked we key in the domain name to join and
then put in the correct format domain admin username & password and then get
returned an error saying "The account is not authorized to login from this
station"

We have no problem whatsoever adding workstations to the domain and run a
muxed network of Windows 2000 & 2003 servers already without any of these
problems being encountered. Does anyone have any ideas ?

Any help much appreciated - Paul

Hello paulc,

Did you try NetBIOS name for domainname and also FQDN?

Best regards
