If this is an XP computer, you have the UPN option. Select the domain in the drop down box, then click the Options button to hide the domain. Then just enter the UPN to login user@xxxxxxxxxxx ________________________________ From: Daniel A.

Joining the computer to the domain using the UPN suffix will not work. A UPN suffix is not "real", it's just an alias. ________________________________ From: Daniel A.

I would be more specific but I don't know the difference between joining and moving. I think I'm attempting to join and now that I think about it I should move the computer into the OU. I'm new to exchange so I apologize for my inability to answer your question more directly. Thank you for your quick response. Dan ________________________________ From: Michael B.
