I have Vista Home Premiun Edition. I have been told that this version of
Windows cannot be directly connect to my office Server's Domain (which is running SBS2000). Is this correct? If so, what version of Vista do I need to get in order to connect to a Domain? Thanks. jdc |

Anything above Home... ie. Business, Ultimate, Enterprise.

You can try creating a user in Active Directory that exactly matches the Home Premium user account and password to see if you can work this way. I have my doubts - it worked with XP and downlevel clients, but with Vista I can't be sure. Other than that, you'd need Business, Enterprise or Ultimate to join and participate correctly in a Domain. From Home you can go to Ultimate but not Business or Enterprise. There is no direct upgrade path from Home Premium to Business or Enterprise. -- Salton ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Salton's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/salton.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/windows-v...ork/785963.htm http://forums.techarena.in |
