How should I go and connect the Windows XP machine to the Network. I go into system and change the workgroup name from that to my domain in the domain textbox and input the administrator name and password?
Yes cmdolcet, the procedure you specify should work.
Of course, that said, please be aware that Windows XP is now out of support, and there are a security features available in Windows 2012 which Windows XP does not support. I can't think of anything in a default installation of Windows 2012 which would preclude a Windows XP machine from joining the domain, but it is possible for the administrator to enable/require some which would preclude the older operating system from joining.
