Adding FSMs and Profile Servers to the Domain

Because the FSMs and Profile Media Server components of the Open SAN
system are Windows NT-based machines, before joining the machines to the
domain, you need to add their names to the new domain you are configuring.

To add a machine:

1. Select

Start | Programs | Administrative Tools | Active Directory Users

and Computers

.

2. Right-click on the Computers folder and select

New Computer

.

The New Object - Computer window appears:

3. Enter the name of the FSM or Profile Media Server.

The pre-Windows 2000 Computer name automatically fills in.

4. Check

Allow pre-Windows 2000 computers to use this account

.

5. Click

OK

.

6. If you see a message saying the computer name contains non-standard

characters, click

Yes

to use this name anyway.

The warning is caused by the underscore that is used in naming the clients of
the shared volume.

7. Repeat steps 2-5 for any other FSMs or Profile Media Servers you have.
