We use it extensively (albeit) NT4. Works a treat. The only thing I'd say is that you want to agree standards about at which point in the dfs path you will create the links and how you will permission them.

There is a client for Win9x although it is beneficial to upgrade the clients if you can. Great tool for abstraction. Win2K can map inside the DFS root as long as you manually enter the path rather than browsing through the DFS tree. _VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_VT_ Todd Pukanecz MCSE, GCWN Virginia Tech, AHNR IT Blacksburg, Virginia --- "It is not the function of our Government to keep the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the citizen to keep the Government from falling into error." - U.S. Supreme Court in American Communications Association v.
