I have been working on this for hours. &nbsp;I have a windows 2003 Server and just got 2 new windows xp professional 64 bit machines. &nbsp;(Not sure if the 64 bit is related or not.). &nbsp;I try to join the domain on the windows 2003 server from the System icon on the XP machine. &nbsp;I try to join the domain with the username and password of the administrator on the Windows 2003 Server, and then I get the message RPC server Unavailable. &nbsp;I checked if all my services are running including the TCP netbios helper and they are. &nbsp;The 2003 Server has 127.0.0.1 for it's DNS (pointing to itself), the Router is configured to give out DHCP with the DNS of 192.168.1.6 which is the 2003 Server. &nbsp;So but I get RPC Server Unavailable. &nbsp;Anyone have any ideas?

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
