server access

[callingman]

Can I get a PC running Win98SE, to see a folder on a server running SBS2003. If so, how. At this point in time the Win98 PC is not set up to be a client of the server.

The insecure way would be to create a guest account, login the 98se pc with that and ensure the folder you wanted to view has permissions for guest accounts/everyone

Is there a way without the PC actually logging into the server

net use \\servername\ipc$ /USER:domainname\username
net use s: \\servername\sharename

View as s: in explorer.

If your windows machine can't find the server add an entry like so to the lmhosts file:

192.168.1.10 servername

This tells windows that the netbios name of the server in question has x IP address and thus can be found.

Also, I'm 99% sure that SBS will have netbios enabled by default but if it don't your hosed unless you enable it (which makes it less secure).

Anyone know if there's a patch or anything that allows 9x machines to use Kerberos?

If you are having trouble accessing the 2003 server with a 98 box, you may need the DSClient installed. I know for my server 2003's I needed it...

Kerberos support. The Active Directory client extension does not deliver Kerberos support for Windows 95/98-based and Windows NT 4.0-based clients.

Thanks Ya_Know, that's good to know. Who the hell uses these arcane OSes anyway?
