It appears to me you've already done that? And what does a "Sub forest" have to do with adding a client computer to a Domain?

Your PC's name is workstation1. Your domain name is bbmak.com. When you added the PC to the domain it's FQDN (fully qualified domain name) became workstation1.bbmak.com.

This is normal. It shows that PC is a member of that domain.....not a child domain. You can't have a child 'forest', only a child domain - a forest would be a separate entity from bbmak.com.

bb, you're really pushing your luck here by posting the same question in multiple threads. Pick ONE thread (your original) and stick with it.
