Never mind. Someone point the right direction. Duh. Now I'm in process of installing the Win 7 on 40+ machines then do the GPO setup/reserved the nodes!

I deiced to test it with XP workstation to join the 2k8 domain and it won't let me. I pinged the server's ip and zero packet loss. Any idea what's wrong?

 

Thanks!

Did you try to ping the servers DNS name? Is your Win XP client static IP or DHCP? If static does it have the DNS server set to server? If DHCP have you set DHCP server to distribute DNS server (006) and Connection DNS (015)?
