Win9x vs WinME

[bboudevi at canal-plus.fr]

It looks like your both OSes are configured differently.
Both problems come from the same source : How user access is managed in
your clients.

In the network panel, go to the third tab (err can't remember the exact
name,
should be something like "Access level" or something)

In your Win98SE you have checked "Users & groups listed from the
following
domain" (follows: domain name) and in WinMe you didn't (security at
share level)

If you set this properties to the same way in both Win98 & WinMe, you'll
reproduce exactly the same error on both OSes.

The heck is that your primary domain controller doesn't allow anonymous
access
to the SAM database, and Win9x clients need this to list domain users &
groups.

About your profile management, I think the problem is issued from this
(mis-)configuration.

So, ideal is to downgrade security (allowing anonymous access to your
SAM
database is unafe, but you have Win9x clients, yikes) and reconfigure
your
WinMe clients.

Have fun,

Ben.
