I need to add a domain account as a local user on a XP
Pro computer. I've tried going through control panel,
user accounts, but when I add the user account and try to
log on locally I get denied. What is going on here?

Correct to logon to a workstation with a domain user you MUST logon
with a DOMAIN user created on the Domain.
If you want to login with a Local user, then you MUST create a LOCAL
user using Computer Management, Users and Groups.
