unable to conect Xp pro to domain

Hi,
I am trying to connect XP Pro to domain of windows 2000 server. When i go under System Properties ->chang tab -> domain name and type in user name which follows with another promt of computer Name and domain, it returns "The following error occured attempting to join domain NameOfDom. Access is denied".
The user account is created on Server. it works because i can log in from any other machine configured as domain client.
I also created Camputer object on Server.
Xp can ping server and server can ping station.
File sharing is enable in XP and Server.
Firewall has been turn off in XP.
No any error messages in event view log.
Any Ideas what could be the poblem?

Thank's

Thank's, it works now. Mazaraat you get the big slice(150p) for solving. Karl and kganjei for adding each 50p. I hope that's fair distribution.
What i did, i deleted the computer object from server and used Administrator preveleges to change doman. For some reason i thought that user who has an account on server should be enough to change domain.
Best,
Margos
