Hi, Hope everyone is good. Ok I have created my unattend.xml, so far so good. It does everything i want it to apart from join the domain. I know the account details are good, as i can join the domain manualy when the machine has finnished loading. (Also the user account works with XP sysprep and joins the domain) I have googled differant options, i.e. a VB srcript to join the domain, but that fails as well, so it must be something i am doing wrong. Could you please look over my unattend.xml file and see if anything is wrong. I have also attached the Setuperr log from Panther. Many thanks Allan unattend - Copy - Copy.xml setuperr.txt
