For internet connection ,u donot need to create new users in domain environment. U create new users in ADUC inorder to have a domain user account which users can use to log into Domain Controller by using
their computers.

For internet connection ,simply plug an ethernet cable in the RJ 45 port of the NIC Card in ur laptop and make sure that the other end of the ethernet cable is properly plugged into a DSL Modem(Provided by ur ISP).

I hope this helps,

Firoz,

I am geting ur problem now, tell me 1 thing what happens when
u click on the radio button "Obtain IP address automatically"?
Do u get any error messege when u click on this radio button?

Make sure that u also click on the radio button "obtain DNS Server address automatically".

Please note once again that ur internet connection has nothing to do with ur domain.

Also tell me that what error messege do u get when u try to enter the domain name into the domain name field ?

Are u sure that in ur computer ,the TCP/IP configuration was set to dynamic?

Answer my questions 1 by 1 and hopefully ur problem will be resolved.

Computer Name tab.and when i click to change button.and select
radio button Domain instead of workgroup.
(a) A Domain Controller for the Domain asfsteel.com could not be contacted.
(b)Ensure that the domain name is typed correctly.

Are u sure that in ur computer ,the TCP/IP configuration was set to dynamic?

Follow these steps:

1) R.C on LAN connection icon in the taskbar----->Status----->Support Tab on the top(Do u see IP address,Default Gateway and Subnet Mask details)? Does it say after "Address Type" :Assigned by DHCP?

You should do this before joining your laptop to domain

Also tell me is ur computer already joined to domain?

[firoz.raj]

(1) R.C On lan connection Icon in the taskbar.....->when i see
status it shows Limited or no connectivity.In activity i got send
386 packets.But in received i did not get any received byte.Kindly
let me know the idea.Any help would be highly appreciated.

Also tell me is ur computer already joined to domain?
No my laptop is not alredy joined to Domain.

Kindly let me know the idea.Any help would be highly appreciated.

[Frank Wallis]

But you said in your last post that you also have a computer on which
internet is working properly? Thats why I was asking if that computer
is also joined to domain?

Which OS do you have in your Laptop, WinXP or WinVista?

If you are geting "Limited and No Connectivity" then follow these steps:

1) R.C--->LAN Connection--->Repair. If Repair doesnot do the job then
move to step 2 and 3.

2) R.C--->LAN Connection--->Disable.
3) Click on Start--->Control Panel--->Network Connections--->R.C---->
LAN icon--->Enable.

If still your problem is not resolved ,get back to this thread.

Maybe you cannot use the "Obtain IP address automatically" option because the ISP wants you to access the internet service using static configuration.
But it say dynamic in a type column.Kindly let me know.when i issue arp -a at dos prompt.

C:\Documents and Settings\firoz>arp -a

Interface: 10.0.0.186 --- 0x2
Internet Address Physical Address Type
10.0.0.138 00-23-04-12-3c-f9 dynamic

C:\Documents and Settings\firoz>

Now hopefully you will be able to join your computer or laptop to domain?
Kindly let me know how should join laptop to domain.using Active directory user and computer
