Winxpnews.com had a good challenge that they sent out in a mailing list
challenging people out there to see if anyone could hack home edition and
get it to join a domain. From what I understand, there is no option to put
in a domain name and have it prompt for a username and password with
permissions to create a computer account within the domain. The only thing
you can do in this case is to map drives as another user, or create a
account with the same username and password and use pass through
authentication. Pass through authentication is generally the best, because
then you can browse the network and just click on whatever without needing
to map a drive as another user...

Subject: Win XP Home on a domain


Hi All,

Does anybody know what happens when you try and put XP Home edition into a
domain?  Does it function like Win 98? Or worse, is it impossible to
connect?

Thanks

-Warren
