I am trying to join my workstations to the domain. The http://servername/connectcomputer  is not working.  The error I get is "The remote procedure call failed and did not execute" The server is running SBS 2003 R2. The error occurs at the end of the wizrd, i.e. after admin authentication at the workstation and discovery of the computer account on the server. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks for the heads up. I turned off "Filter Internet NAT redirection" on the router and it worked. It's been a long night.
Thanks again.

I am still having problems. is there a way that I can kill the DNS server and start fresh? I double checked every step in "2 NICs, static IP, a router and ISA" . NOTE: ISA is not enabled yet.

Can you post an ipconfig/all of the server and a client you are trying to join? Make sure DHCP on the router is turned off.

My solution was to uninstall ISA (totally) then the workstations joined the domain o.k. - Now I am thinking that I want to configure Outlook to use rpc over http. Right now each user's outlook is connecting to the exchange server for internal email and the ISP via IMAP for external email giving them 2 confusing inboxes. I want to pop3 the email to the exchange server from the ISP and have everyone either use internally rpc over http or OWA for the external users.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.
