I commited some code this morning (UTC) to the CVS 2.2 branch that should
fix most problems with W2K.

To join the domain, you need:

a) add the machine account to /etc/passwd
b) log on the w2k locally using the administrator account
c) join the domain using your unix root account.

If it doesn't work, send me the relevant part of your
%systemroot%/debug/netsetup file and a log level 100.
