Setting Up Windows XP for Domain Login
You can enable domain login on a Windows XP computer by joining it to the Windows
domain of a Mac OS X Server PDC. Joining the Windows domain requires the name
and password of an LDAP directory administrator account.
You can delegate this task to someone with a local administrator account on the
Windows computer. In this case, you may want to create a temporary LDAP directory
administrator account with limited privileges. For more information, see User
Management.
To join a Windows XP computer to a Windows domain:
1 Log in to Windows XP using a local administrator account.
2 Open the Control Panel, then open System.
3 Click Computer Name, then click Change.
4 Enter a computer name, click Domain, enter the domain name of the Mac OS X Server
PDC, and click OK.
To look up the domain name of the server, open Server Admin on the server or an
administrator computer, select SMB in the Servers list, click Settings, then click General.
