I am trying to get win2k to work with Samba 2.0.5a that works
with win 98. I read on
http://bioserve.latrobe.edu.au/samba/ntdomfaq.html
that Win 2k will not work with Samba as a PDC, but will work
as a file share. So, question is:
Can I make win 2k work with my current Samba config that functions
as a PDC for win 98?
Do I need to upgrade my current working 2.0.5a?
Below is the working smb.conf for win 98, but fails to allow me
to browse with win2k.
