join Windows Domain

Post by filtro »

I'm trying to join a windows domain from a Windows XP guest. I read mac os x version lacks some networking features , but I'm not a windows geek, so, is there some way to join a windows domain?
Thanks

I still have to use Parallels for this.

When I had my Windows VMs in VBox, both had the same IP and I was unable to get this going.

Hopefully this will get fixed soon, so I can rid myself of Parallels as their support bites.

Is this still true that using virtualbox I will not be able to join a domain on a XP Guest machine?

I was able to get my WinXP guest to join the domain. I had to switch to using Host Interface on the NIC and I had to choose to use the Intel Pro Desktop card and load the drivers. After I did that it joined the domain just like normal.
