I have no clue why it wouldn't allow you to have different
names for the OS and then both can be joined at the same time, I have done this
often. You did use different directories for the installations right?
Any
more dual booting is going the way of the dodo, the "new" thing is to
virtualization software so you have both instances up and running at once. Look
at Virtual PC or VMWare Workstation.

Subject: [ActiveDir] WinXP and Win2003
Hi list,
I have windows xp sp 2 on my machine, I need to test something so I
installed windows 2003 server enterprise edition R2 on the same machine same
hard disk, I can see the dual boot screen and choose the OS, but I can only
login to the domain if one of the OS's is disconnected from the domain, meaning
if I want to login to the windows 2003 I have to go to the windows xp and
disjoin the machine from the domain then restart and login to the domain in
windows 2003, if I want to login to winxp I go to windows 2003 and disjoin it
from the domain then restart and join the xp to the domain and login, locally I
can login to both machines no problem. the error is that the computer account is
not found on the domain when I try to login and both OSes are joined to the
domain. I tried to rename the machine name to different names in each OS but
same thing happens. is there a way to do that? (login to domain using both OS's
without having to disjoin?)
Thank you
