Re: unable to join domain

Hello sachin2531,

As this posting comes up today 11.Dec.2009 in this NG, maybe check your time/date
settings on the machine.

Please post an unedited ipconfig /all from the DC/DNS server and the Vista
machine so we can exclude DNS as a main problem.

Are the Vista machine and the DC in the same time zone and is the time on
both machines more or less the same?

Best regards

Meinolf Weber
