The domain part is for Windows xp pro.\nHome edition you will be able to use workgroups.\nOn the desktop right click on My Computer, then go to Computer Name. Second button on the page says Change...Click it. When the screen opens up you have the ability to change the computer name, you can me a Member of either a domain  or a workgroup.

XP Home doesn't have the Remote Desktop server capability.  XP Home can be a client (controlling an XP Pro machine), but it can't be a server (being controlled by another machine).  For that, you can use a program like VNC, free from http://www.realvnc.com . \n\nThese tips should help you get the computers to see each other: \n\n\n1. If the computers run the original or SP1 versions of Windows XP, disable XP's built-in Internet Connection Firewall on local area network connections -- it's for use only on a direct modem connection to the Internet.  If they run SP2, enable the exception for file and printer sharing in the Windows Firewall.  Disable and un-install all \nother firewall programs while troubleshooting.  When un-installing a firewall program, use the un-install procedure provided by the \nmanufacturer .  Don't use Control Panel | Add or Remove Programs, which might not completely un-install it. \n\n\nFor more information, see: \n\n\nWindows XP Internet Connection Firewall \nhttp://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/xp/ic_firewall.htm \n\n\n2. Use only one protocol for File and Printer Sharing.  If the network needs more than one protocol, unbind File and Printer Sharing from all but one of them.  Details here: \n\n\nWindows XP Network Protocols \nhttp://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/xp/network_protocols.htm \n\n\n3.  Make sure that NetBIOS over TCP/IP is enabled on all computers. Details here: \n\n\nEnable NetBIOS Over TCP/IP (NetBT) \nhttp://www.practicallynetworked.com/sharing/troubleshoot/netbt.htm \n\n\n4. Run "ipconfig /all" on XP and look at the "Node Type" at the beginning of the output.  If it says "Peer-to-Peer" (which should actually be "Point-to-Point") that's the problem.  It means that the computer only uses a WINS server, which isn't available on a peer-to-peer network, for NetBIOS name resolution. \n\n\nIf that's the case, run the registry editor, open this key: \n\n\n   HLM&#92;System&#92;CurrentControlSet&#92;Services&#92;Netbt&#92;Parameters \n\n\nand delete these values if they're present: \n\n\n   NodeType \n   DhcpNodeType \n\n\nReboot, then try network access again. \n\n\nIf that doesn't fix it, open that registry key again, create a DWORD value called "NodeType", and set it to 1 for "Broadcast" or 4 for "Mixed". \n\n\nFor details, see these Microsoft Knowledge Base articles: \n\n\nDefault Node Type for Microsoft Clients \nhttp://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;160177 \n\n\nTCP/IP and NBT Configuration Parameters for Windows XP \nhttp://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;314053

If you are looking for a centralized management which I belive you would like to setup, then you will have to convert your windows 2003 macine to domain controller by using the dcpromo command and then you will have to join rest of the computers as a member of the domain. \n\nMake sure you use TCP/IP configuration correctly and on top of it the DNS configuration is the most important part of it since Windows XP machines looks in to the DNS configuration to locate domain controllers. \n\nHope this will help if you need additional information on how and what email me.

Setup a logon script and use the NET USE command in it - NET USE X: &#92;&#92;server&#92;share

- First, the XP machine has to join the domain\nTo make it join the domain:\n-- right-click on My Computer then choose Properties;\n-- open the Computer Name tab then click on the Change button;\n-- Under the Member of Frame, click on the Domain radio button;\n-- type in the name of the domain to join it...\n\n- You will restart then a new Combo box will be added in the Login screen for Windows...make sure that the domain is selected, not the Local PC, then login with the valid username and password to authenticate in the AD (Active Directory)\n\nPS: if the PC doesn't manage to join the domain, make sure you have the ComputerName added in the AD to join the domain...\n\n\nGood Luck...

What you want to use is the off line folders capability in the operating system.\n\nThat said, a lot of the authentication pieces needed to work with a domain environment are removed from XP Home.  You will have to be able to map shares individually (how you do that isa bit beyond the scope of this forum, I'm assuming you know how).  Once you have it mapped, you can go to the properties and set it for Off Line access.  If it allows you to do it, you can still work with it when not connected, and it will syncronize when you reconnect.\n\nBut XP Home is quirky.   You'd be better off with XP Pro.

If you click the launch menu then go to control center.  In there click network  click administator and type and enter the admin (root) password.  In the network settings there should be something that says renew.  If you click that the computer automatically detects a connection and establishes an IP address.  after that your good to go.  One piece of advice.  when using xandros, I learned from expierence to have my router on before turning on my PC.

Based from my learning experience, you should do this:\n\n\nGo to Network Neighborhood\n    >Properties\n         >Client for Microsoft Network\n         >TCP/IP\n                >Properties> I.P. address> subnet mask will  \n                 automatically displayed\n                 make sure the I.P. address is different to one another    \n                   ex. 198.176.0.1  for PC1\n                          198.176.0.2 for PC 2\n                          198.176.0.3 for PC 3\n        > Ethernet/LAN Card\n           --->Click Add Tab-> Protocol > Microsoft ---> NETBEUI\n                                                                           ---->IPX/SPX\n        > File and Print Sharing (check the box)\n\nGo to My Computer\n      > Open> Local Disk > properties > Network Sharing and      \n                                                                 Security  \n      > Properties > Computer Name: PC1, PC2 or PC3 \n                               Workgroup: (any word must be the same )

You can, but it is alot more difficult in 98 then it is in xp as an administrator.\n\nyou can do it natively through the windows registry. for more information on how to do it., goto the webpage i posted below from Microsoft®. \n\nhttp://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;[LN];q179221#kb1\n\nThere are also external software packages that will help do it for you. What it does is basically make it more user friendly, but is doing the same thing at the end of the day.

You didn't mention which OS you were using so i'm gonna assume you're using win server 2003.\n\n"Setup another DC." This DC will act as a peer server and active directory data will be copied to it when it is set up. try the microsoft windows server 2003 techcenter for more detailed information.

I think your terminology needs refined a bit, but I do understand what you are saying.  What you are looking to do is set up a *Windows* domain with your Linux box.  To do this, you will need to install Samba (http://www.samba.org).  Samba can emulate a windows domain server and provides file sharing, and it will also allow you to set up "roaming profiles" for the users in your house.  Caveat: If I recall correctly, Windows XP home does not support domain logins, which also means no roaming profiles.  I'd suggest looking at the SAMBA Howto at:\n\nhttp://us2.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/\n\nAlso, just so you know, when you say domain server, usually in the UNIX/Linux world this is referring to a DNS (Domain Name) Server, which translates hostnames into IP addresses.  Good luck.\n\n__J. Random
