3. I am at work, so my connection comes from a router.
I hope that satisfies the required info.
Now for the question:
I have the VM XP Pro running great in Server, only I cannot connect to the windows domain here at work. I have searched and searched, only I cannot find a solution to this problem. My apologies if this is something that has been covered before, I just could not find it anywhere. I try to connect to the domain, and I get the following error:
"The specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted."
Please can someone help me? I need bridged networking, and I need to be on the domain with the XP Pro VM. That is all. I tried with Bridged, NAT, and Host-only, none seem to work. Thanks in advance.
