Hi, I am running WIn XP Pro and I connect to a Windows 2000 Server domain. I was able to connect fine but now I get a message saying "System cannot log you on. The Trust Relationship between this workstation and the primary domain failed."

Any suggestions ?

Is your XP PC joined to a different domain? From the sounds of the error message it has been. Double check and ensure it has the correct DNS suffix. If it doesn't, you'll have to disjoin it from it's domain and then add the correct DNS suffix of your domain and join it to that domain.

I think Curt's first statement is right. If the machine is already a member of another domain, disjoin it, then join the new domain.
