Setting up a new desktop for the company, and it looks like the wizard skipped over adding the machine to the domain. I've already installed all the software, Windows updates and mapped the drives. It would suck hard to have to restart from scratch and do it all again.

Any way to set it up to choose to log on to the network domain, instead of just a local user?

Thanks!

As long as you have rights to add it to the domain...

right click on My Computer, select properties.  Select the Computer Name tab, select Change, Select the Domain Radial button, type in the domain hit OK.  It will ask for credentials, so you have to ahve rights.  let it do it's thing.  then restart it.

Oh my gosh, you're right! Gah I did that to computers for 2 months a year ago, and totally forgot!

Thank you, good sir!
