I upgraded from NT4 to W2K two days ago and now can't access shared
disks/files on W2K from Linux (W2K<-Linux). Get "RPC Failed" whenever I
try. Can see the Linux Icon in "Entire Network". W98<->Linux still
works. W2K<->W98 works. All pings work.
Anybody solved this yet??

If you believe any of the following:
1. You need more ram if you have more disk space
2. Linux needs more than 128mb of ram to function "correctly"
3. Having too little ram can cause sporadic *lockups* in linux
then take your linux system and format it, and go back to windows.
Apparently you're still stuck in the Microsoft mentality of "If
I don't throw tons of money to soup up my system with more hard-
ware than I should EVER really need, that'll make it more stable."
Linux functions within its constraints, unlike windows; and I'm
sorry, but NO lack of resources should EVER cause a linux system
to lock up completely.
