Here's more info on the error I am getting when I try to join the
Domain. It asks me:
Enter the name and password of an account with permission to join
the domain
user: brian
password: <password>
"Click Ok"
It pauses for a few moments, and here is the error I get:
The following error occurred attempting to join the domain "cheddar"
The account used is a computer account. Use your global user account or
local user account to access this server.
I have a user account on the "cheddar" domain. What am I doing wrong?
