View 4.0 XP Linked Clones Unable to Join Domain In View 4.5

Hi

I have an XP SP3 image that has been working without issue in View 4.0 for ages. I'm now testing View 4.5 and am using this same image to test, the only difference being I've upgraded the View agent to 4.5. Only trouble is, when the linked clones are provisioned, they sit there for ages 'customizing' and then finally give the following error:

View Composer agent initialization state error (18): Failed to join the domain (waited 810 seconds)

The strange thing is that the machine accounts for these clones have been created in AD by View, it just doesn;t seem to be finishing off. I've seen some posts about ensuring the AD account for the master image PC no longer exists in AD, and have done that, but still run into this issue. All settings in the View environment re domain joining, etc. are exactly as they are in the fully functional View 4.0 production environment.

Anyone have any ideas?

This looks like the same issue.
