Yes, after I initially deleted it, the file was recreated about 2
minutes later. However, I'm fairly certain that's because we have a lot
of Win98/95 clients on the network that only get phased out when their
hardware kicks it, so I'm stuck with the cron thing for now. That's fine
with me though, I'm happy to just have a workable solution, since I've
been fighting with this ever since our SP1 upgrade 2 weeks ago.

Ahhh, that's very interesting! The printer stuff especially will be
great, as we've been busy migrating towards a central (Samba) print
server from printers scattered all over the network. Excellent!
