Then I spent several hours trying to get WinXP Pro to see Samba shares. WinXP now has the distinction of being the only OS that has ever caused me to seriously consider physical violence towards a computer.
that is something that every win-version is causing me. it is not only a feature of winxp. :)
needed here. I've got a Win98 CD somewhere around, I might get rid of XP. I seem to remember that 98 was quite easy to setup with Samba.
i dont think that this is a good idea. AFAIK is win98 and win95 facing the end of their life and therefore the will be no longer patches (except some security patches) made available by MS. despite this all other patches will be removed from the support side. i think the announced date for this is the 23rd dec of this year.
what about replacing the win-machine with something more usefull. lets say e.g. linux? ;) i mean: is there really a need for the win-machine?
cya, goofy
