Bare with my with this one guys!
I have 3 computers at home,we will call them a,b,c! A and B are using Windows XP and are connected throught a 8port router,they also have acess to internet through this and are on the same WORKGROUP!C is using Windows 2000 Client Sp4 and is connected to same router as A and B,gets acess to the internet throught this also but is on a Domain(we will call DOMAIN.net) ALL computers retrieve their IP from the router and the default DNS is specified by me!
Previously I have tried changin C information to Workgroup but that corrupts the user name\profiles!I have full rights to the client of c and the home network WORKGROUP but no rights to the actual domain.net! Is there anyway I can get all 3 computers talking so I can back up information on c to a or b!
Any help advise would be great help!
Than you in advance

you don't have a windows 2000 server domain controller so change the workstations domain to the workgroup.

can't be a member of a domain and workgroup unless they are the same name.
