Yes I believe that I did that ok, the Domain name is rmtire.com and that is exactly how I typed it in, I used the other xp computers as an example of what to put in. however you mentioned "domain name.local" I did not type .local after "rmtire.com" is this a problem next question is same name in the correct O.U. on the server (where do I find the O.U. in the server) Note I have not looked for it on the server and what does O.U. stan for?
