The obvious one that comes to mind is, dump the NT and replace it with a
real OS.
On the theory that that is not acceptable, how far along on networking are
you? Can you ping one or more NT servers? If not, you have IP problems to
solve. Have you got Samba installed, and configured? Particularly, see
recent messages on this list about encrypted passwords on NT. Can you do
an "smbclient -L servername"? If so you should get something like:
ccurley@charlesc /tmp $ smbclient -L server
Added interface ip=192.168.1.3 bcast=192.168.1.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
