Join NT/win2000 into a Samba Domain

[Kevin Colby]

We have found several CAD packages do not work well, if at all,
under NT and 2000.  Odd as it is, Win98 does a better job for
some stuff.  Unfortunately, so long as _any_ currently used
software will not work under NT, we will not have the luxury
of going to a Win9x-less network.  I am sure we are not the
only ones who have to meet real world demands like this, and I
appreciate the Samba team's effort to retain Win9x compatibility.
Without it, Samba would not be an option.
