Googling around suggests that you want the NetJoinDomain API
 call which doesn't appear to have been wrapped by any of the
 win32 packages. It looks like quite a simple call:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/netmgmt/netmgmt/netjoindomain.asp

so the chances are it can be accessed by ctypes

http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/ctypes/

but I'll have to leave it to someone more capable than I am
 with ctypes to confirm.
