Eveything was working ok until a recaptured the reference image again. I'd
added a few more applications and tweaks and now I cannot join the domain.
My setupact.log file says:

The only major change was I updated the source files for the reference image
to be Enterprise edition instead of business. Any clues?? I'm not even sure
how I can debug this??

maybe try adding the techeffect.local as the domain name for the
credentials instead of the netbios name (or vice versa for the domain
to join name)
i also wouldn't recommend using the administrator account, but instead
create a standard user and assign the correct AD permissions, but this
is not why it fails, jus a recommendation
