I'm having a pickle of a problem with Windows XP Professional and 2000
Server. When I create a new share or a printer or something on the XP
Prof machine and go to set the security permissions to it I am unable
to add directory user accounts. The directory does not show up under
locations and the addresses to the users (domain/username) can not be
found if manually typed in. Further more, 98 clients are unable to
browse to the machine through network neighborhood. They see it, but
they cannot connect to it even if create a duplicate of the directory
user account on the XP Prof machine locally. Basically it looks to me
like the only thing that happened when I joined the XP Prof machine to
the directory was that a computer account was created, but none of the
benefits of joining have been granted to the machine.

Can anyone help a poor confused NT4 man? :)

Thanks
Jeff
