Thanks Nick. Actually, the discussion with Win 2000 Resource Kit tool "SrvAny" is not about it NOT working, but rather about how to set it up. There are two opposing pieces of Microsoft documentation: a very simplistic knowledgebase entry, and the "full" documentation in the 'Tools' help.
Some people apparently are able to use a simple configuration, which (if one believes the full documentation) should not be working. (PS: Since I already have the Resource Kit utility installed, I try to avoid duplicating function by installing yet another set of utilities - freeware or not.)
