Okay, more details on this one.  Here's the error:

Your computer could not be joined to the domain because the following error
has occured:

The account used is a computer account.  Use your global user account or
local user account to access this server.


I'm getting that with whichever user I try to use.  Any help would be great.
Again, I have tried following the PDC howto, but not much luck so far.

Thanks,
Scott
