439805	2006-03-23 22:05:00	I'm getting lost with what you want!? . . . LOL Log into Boring domain when at shop A, with boring\user . & when at shop B, login to crazy domain with crazy\user profile . Is that it? . If so no worries, That is *exactly* what I want to be able to do if you wish to authenciate to 2 different domains at once, the domains have to have a trust, which was when NT4 was around . Nowadays, their are Forests & Trees & OU . The network administrator who be the only person to with rights to this . Lets not go there . I'm not sure I've got this clear . . what you are saying here is if I want to login to domain1 and get access to things in domain2 then there needs to be a trust (or the AD equilivent) setup between them . So . . using the example names from above, you would only need to create a trust if you wished to login as boring\user and access a file server that was only a member of the crazy domain . So . . seing as I don't want to be able to do this I don't need to worry about getting either crazy or boring to trust the other one? I cant imaging to separate domains would be on the same NIC, so perhaps you dont want to login to 2 domains at once after all . Ouch my head! :illogical :waughh: Head hurts too . . . I'm not sure what you mean here :confused: Edit: My laptop logs onto my home domain @ home, work domain @ work, and also its own local domain for the administrator account . This is pretty much what I want to be able to do (subistute home for something else . . but same theory)! Just login with a seperate everything at a seperate location . I thought this would just be a matter of joining the new domain (crazy), however when I did that I lost my membership of the first one (boring) . It would be absolutely fantastic if I could get something setup similar to what your described in your edit SolMiester, could you post some instructions on how to do that, or a link to a webpage that explains? Thanks heaps, you restored my hope, I was begining to think I was only going to be able to login to one of the domains, and would have to get a bunch of nasty work arounds setup to use only one of the profiles .	forgotmypassword (10036)
439806	2006-03-24 01:17:00	Is this a Win 2000 or 2003 domain, win 2k or xp pro, the domains should be present as a drop down list! Joining 1 domain while a member of another shouldnt cause you to lose membership of other unless it is a global policy	SolMiester (139)

439808	2006-03-24 02:56:00	Is this a Win 2000 or 2003 domain, win 2k or xp pro, the domains should be present as a drop down list! Joining 1 domain while a member of another shouldnt cause you to lose membership of other unless it is a global policy boring is a win2000 domian, crazy is a samba domain (so should be the same as a NT4 domain), alphie is running winXP pro. Every time I join alphie to the other domain (by loggin in as alphie\administrator then going to system properties->computer name->change, and changing the domain name) I only get alphie(local computer) and either Boring or Crazy in the drop down box (whichever I joined last). Is there something I am doing wrong in that process? Thanks again SolMiester	qyiet (6730)

Is this something like whatn you want to do . . mcse . ms/archive66-2005-8-1767257 . html" target="_blank">www . mcse . ms That is the question, sure . . - The USER can be in as many domains as they want/have available . - The computer can only be in any one given domain at a time . Now I'm just confused . . so how do you get two domains to appear on that drop down list at the logon screen? ::edit: I found my password	qyiet (6730)
