Hi I have another server that I would like to add to my domain.
So far I have added the server to the domain as you would with a computer. Now there is a computer account for my server in the computers container in AD.
But when I browse AD Users and Computers I cant see the server listed under my domain.

In windows 2003, all member server is DC. Therefore, if you want the server to be a DC, you will need to promote it to a DC. Click on Start > Run > dcpromo. Then just follow the wizard.
Hope that helps.

Member servers are servers that are not domain controllers within a domain. You may not have seen the server within ADUC because you're connecting to a DC where the account hasn't been replicated to yet.
Also, can you log into the domain? If so, the computer has to be a part of the domain.

I have joined the server to the domain. But I cant see it listed anywhere as being a member server.
All I have is a computer account for it in the COMPUTERS container.

That is exactly what should happen.

Dont expect it to be listed as 'Member Server'. It will just be listed as a machine on the network.

It's entirely normal for it to only be listed under the Computers OU. It will only be moved to the Domain Controllers OU if it is a doman controller. What did you expect?
