domain name is missing when adding a user in Local user and groups.

[Guest gchandrujs via WindowsKB.com]

Hi,

 

I connected a PC from workgroup to a domain. Its a big network and i am

sure that there is no problem in the server side as we are using around 1000

PCs in a single domain. Also, the pc i connected in the domain is a new

installed windows XP SP2.

 

After connecting to a domain i tried to add a domain user in the

administrators group in that PC through Local User and Groups

by Right clicking the My Computer and clicking the Manage button.

 

When i opened the Administrators group in the Local User and Groups and

clicked add button, it shows only the local PC name in the Locations tab.

When i clicked the Locations tab it is showing only the local PC name. The

Entire Directory and Domain name name is missing in the Locations tab.

 

What could be the problem. Any help is highly appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Regards,

Chandra.
