>From the release notes there are changes in Vista SP1 to make the OS more compatible with Server 2008, but I did not find anything specific in the release notes to your exact issue - of course not every single fix is documented. But if you don't have access to SP1, that wouldn't help much would it? sorry. -----Original Message----- From: Paul Lemonidis (NTL) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: NT System Admin Issues <[email protected]> To: NT System Admin Issues <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Vista Enterprise in a Windows 2008 Domain Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2008 09:43:52 -0000
Hi Bryan Many thanks for your reply. No, I didn't think of that. Not yet as I don't have access to it yet, as I'm not an Enterprise customer. Is that definitely the issue? Many thanks in advance.
