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

Overview

I found an issue during View 4.5 installation with Windows XP SP3 linked clones. I was receiving the error message"View Composer agent initialization state error (18): Failed to join the domain". I found the following Link that needs to be applied to the base image, then new snapshot and recompose. All works great after that.
