We 99% sure the last time I tried to join a 2008 box to our 2008 domain, it wouldn't join unless I had netbios ticked even when specifically using the DNS name of the domain, but I could be wrong. My brain is mush this afternoon and I guess I could have used the netbios name of the domain instead.
I may have just engaged fingers before brain, so feel free to ignore me!

I know about joining 2000/XP to an NT4 domain, but joining to a 2000 or later domain? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314366/EN-US By default, the setting is dependent upon how you have DHCP configured: (copied and pasted from the popup help information from WINS tab of network properties) ***** Specifies that this network connection obtain the setting to enable or disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) from a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. The enabling or disabling of NetBT through DHCP is provided with the value of the Disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) Microsoft vendor-specific DHCP option. When an IP address is automatically obtained, this option is selected by default so that this computer uses the NetBT setting as optionally provided by the DHCP server when this computer obtains an IP address and configuration lease. If the Disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) DHCP option is provided by the DHCP server, the value of the option determines whether NetBT is enabled or disabled. If the Disable NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) DHCP option is not provided by the DHCP server, NetBT is enabled. If you are manually configuring an IP address, selecting this option enables NetBT. This option is not available for dial-up connections. ****** So, in essence, it is enabled. does that make it required to join to 2000 or later domain that as no use or need for WINS? Jonathan L.

Or does that bypass the registration process. My thought is that the client still registers with the WINS server, it just stops using NetBIOS over TCP/IP, but a colleague disagrees with me on this.
