Let us say that you are physically on the machine as Domain Admin. Can you browse AD ? GuidoElia HELPPC

Does the DC also have DNS/DHCP running? Are both machines in the same subnet? You said anything but these are usually the things that occur first when doing any testing.

I have enabled several services that I always enable like Messenger and Alerter services so that users can get print job completion notices and such but that is all of the chnages made. I didn't remember making any changes to the other domains I created to get this to work. In this domain I have set the Admin password to the member server the same as the password to the admin account for the domain and there might be some kind of confusion in the member server over that. After lunch today I will change the Admin password in hte domain and see if that make any changes and lets me do what I need to do. Keep the ideas coming - I'll try just about anything at this point.

You should see what groups your account is in, what's in the local administrators group on the second machine, what GPOs apply, and review anything else you might have configured.

Although the local admin account does exactly the same thing. I'm thinking that I missed something in the setup of the DC - like enabling something in policy that would let a Domain Admin set things on member servers. I must not be googling for the right keywords because this should not be this obscure to find the solution to. It can't be that hard as I've done it for another scratch built domain a couple of years ago. I just can't seem to remember what it was. <scowls at self> Len Was it something about delegation of authority? on the DC?

That sounds like a local account, though I haven't tried doing that.

My corporate gig ended a while back and now I'm doing some freelance stuff while looking for another permanent position. But now I have a problem with a new domain I'm setting up for a small non-profit. Background: New domain (they are peer to peer until I get the new domain built and installed) New DC (HP dl380) - Server 2003 - file & print shares New database member server (HP dl360) - Server 2003 - small database program and a couple of small, low usage file shares. One XP workstation Problem: for some reason I can't set domain permissions on the member server shares. When attempting to set permissions the only item in the list is the member server name, the DC server name is not listed and the 'location' selection button and selection line is not accessible and cannot be changed from the member server name to the domain name. The member server is a member of the domain. I even tried removing the member server and adding it back to the domain without success. It has been a long time since I set up a new domain with more than one server so maybe my feeble memory is forgetting a step in the setup. My googling has not turned up an answer yet. Could someone kindly refresh my memory?
