Authenticating to Windows 2000 and XP networks
What do you mean by domain name? Where would I find this if it is different than the workgroup name?
Authenticating to Windows 2000 and XP networks
domain and workgroup are almost the same... In fact, a PC can be member of a workgroup (just a have to set the same workgroup on every PC, no WinNT or W2k server required) or you can have a server which control a domain and all other PC logs on that domain (kind of server oriented workgroup)...
Could someone else please explain this
Thanks for trying to answer the question above, but I still do not understand. If anyone else could answer this I would be grateful. Again, thanks.

A domain is described on a Win 2K Domain Controller in standardform, eg, foo.company.com. You can also define a short name which can be used by non-Win 2K clients to access the domain's resources, eg, just FOO, and it appears as a workgroup name to non Win 2K cilents. |
