Hi
 
I have created the machine account on the AD server and did this logged in as 
Administrator so that should mean that the Administrator account has the 
correct permissions.
 
I have executed the following command as suggested 
 
net ads join [EMAIL PROTECTED] -d 2
 
The following was output to the screen:
 
[2005/04/08 13:33:38, 2] lib/interface.c:add_interface(81)

added interface ip=10.0.0.39 bcast=10.0.255.255 nmask=255.255.0.0

[2005/04/08 13:33:41, 0] libads/kerberos.c:ads_kinit_password(146)

kerberos_kinit_password [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed: Unknown code krb5 156

[2005/04/08 13:33:41, 0] utils/net_ads.c:ads_startup(191)

ads_connect: Unknown code krb5 156

[2005/04/08 13:33:41, 2] utils/net.c:main(897)

return code = -1

Thanks

Penny

I suggest you post the output of the command you are running to join the domain 
(including the command), for example, "net ads join -U [EMAIL PROTECTED] -d 2".

Also, note that the credentials you use to join the domain are not necessarily 
the domain Administrator, but they need to be a user who has write privileges 
to the ads folder where the machine account will be created.  (It worked better 
for me when the machine account was already created in server manager, but 
according to the docs, that shouldn't be necessary.)

It almost looks like the password failed.  Or perhaps the folder you specified 
for the machine account does not exist.

Regards,

Gordon Hopper
