I will try and coax my win2k server installation into doing the right thing, and also try joining with samba3 via kerberos (which is supposed to work in 3.0alpha22). > It would be a lot easier to just do a workstation install Monday morning at > work, if that won't be too late. Should be ok, not much difference between saturday afternoon and Monday morning (unless Pixel decides to work the weekend ... whose turn is it anyway? Warly?). But a test against an NT server would be good to hear about (since I don't have any NT servers ... just one win2k server). Anyone else with a setup to test is welcome to tell me if it works or not ...
