What do you mean Macs can not join windows domains? All my Macs are joined
to my domain via Active Directory. Each of my Macs' machines names are in
my Computer OU in my AD.
When one of my Macs attempts to access a share via SMB the domain name is
auto filled-out in the domain box on the Mac.
I was hoping for something similar in AFP.
So, no luck? :(
