Home versions of Windows cannot join a Domain, sorry. You'll need Business or Ultimate to do that.

This is off topic, but someone told me the Windows ME can join a domain. Does anyone know if this is true? If so, MS did at one stage allow home versions of their OS to join a domain.

Windows 9x and ME cannot "join" a domain in the true sense since they cannot have/create a computer account. However, go to Control Panel, Network on Windows ME and in the properties of File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks, add you domain name and you can login to the domain, access shares, etc.

Thanks for the clarification Rakesh. Am I correct in saying that unlike in Windows 9x/Me, you cannot log in to a domain with XP home or Vista Basic/Premium?
