DS client for NT4 alpha

[Daniel Vasilciu]

Anyone knows if it exist a directory services client version for NT4 Alpha
(former DEC system)
stations ?

I turned the domain to native-mode and now I am having some problems and
need to install dsclient on NT4 workstations.

Don't think so, because windows support for alpha processors where phased
out just after Windows 2000 beta 2. If you by any chance have a copy of
Windows 2000 Server Beta2 CD, then you could find the client there (not sure
though). I will check If I have one, but I have to dig trough a pile of MS
CD's as this is quite old stuf

Thank you Matjaz.

But thinking that as only Win9x dsclient is on finally Win 2000 release, and
NT4 (I386) version is only downloadable, probably the Beta2 doesn't has
one...

Anyway I'm awaiting good news. Cheers !

You are right. adclient (on 2000 CD-ROM) was for Win9x only. Aparently alpha
AD client was scheduled to be on NT4 SP7 CD-ROM, but as SP7 never came out,
there aparently is no adclient for alpha. Maybe someone from MS would
clarify if adclient for alpha exists or not.
