Windows 98 client cannot login to active directory domain

#1 June 22nd 04, 04:11 PM

I receive the following error message when I try to login
to the domain from the Windows 98 client.
Message: Microsoft Networking The share name was not
found. Be sure you typed it correctly.
This error is intermittent. I created a LMHOSTS file with
the IP addresses of our Domain controllers and WINS
servers. The saved the LMHosts file in the c:\windows
folder on the Windows 98 client.

If you have an AD network, you shouldn't need either LMHOSTS or a WINS
server reference. Your network stack does, however, need to have as its
primary the AD's DNS reference.
