Charles, Yes, I am aware of the difference between NTFS for NT4 and 5, as I
had W2K with NTFS on my own machine but took it off in favor of Linux. :-)  I
should have tried to access it before removing it.  I don't know the answer
to your question, but I have fowarded it to my University's computer lab
people, as they have these senerios set up.  As soon as I have the answer,
will forward it to you. 
Regards, 
Gary
