Hi,

I have Windows 98 Se clients connected to a Domain controler Windows
server 2003
The microsoft clients are set to connect on a domain.
The clients are also set to retreive users and groups list from domain. One
share is made on the W98 clients and domain admin have full access on it.

I f any user are already logged on the W98 client, domain admin can access
the share and everything works well.

But if the client is not logged (the machine are at the loggin window)
domain admin receive an error message and cannot access the remote share.
Also after this nobody can log on the machine. We have to reset the machine
to have access to it again.

Also If the user account is set to change password, the popup windows to
change password appear at login time and we can change the password but just
after this change the session is ending and nobody can log on the machine
until it is reboot.


Thank you for any help

Patrice
 
Got WINS installed on the server? Got options 044 and 046 (0x8) in
DHCP-server, Scope options? How many nics in the server?
Does the winipcfg from the W9x show that everything is pointing to the
server-IP?
 
Yes there a WINS server on the network. option 003, 006, 044,046 (0X8) are
set.
Only one Nic on the DC.
Winipcfg show correct gateway and DNS and WINS as well.
There is no problem to link on the server. Problems happen when we try to
connect to the W98 machine share from another machine when no session is
open on w98 machine.

Thank you !
