This is off topic, but someone told me the Windows ME can join a domain.
Does anyone know if this is true? If so, MS did at one stage allow home versions of their OS to join a domain. "Dave R." dwragle at drbsystems dot com wrote in message reenews.net...

If so, MS did at one stage allow home versions of their OS to join a domain. Windows 9x and ME cannot "join" a domain in the true sense since they cannot have/create a computer account. However, go to Control Panel, Network on Windows ME and in the properties of File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks, add you domain name and you can login to the domain, access shares, etc. -- Thanks, Rakesh Chanana [MSFT] This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

Thanks for the clarification Rakesh. Am I correct in saying that unlike in
Windows 9x/Me, you cannot log in to a domain with XP home or Vista Basic/Premium? "Rakesh Chanana [MSFT]" wrote in message ... "Jay" - wrote in message ...
